Paris Perfumery Raw Materials Exhibition (SIMPPAR) will be held 28 to 29 May 2024 in Paris, France. Paris Perfumery Raw Materials Exhibition (SIMPPAR) is a biennial professional exhibition, dedicated to the raw materials and services relating to the Fragrance Industry, initiated in 1991 by the French Society of Perfumers.The XVth SIMPPAR promises to be particularly expected and exciting, - first because it will be the first event for our Industry after more than a year of deprivation due to COVID 19, - second because we are going to celebrate on this occasion the 30 years anniversary of this show which has grown well during all these years, - and finally because it has become the reference internationally for the raw materials for Perfumery. Paris Perfumery Raw Materials Exhibition (SIMPPAR) is an event and I like events...
This exhibition has an international thrust and though the largest number of exhibitors is French, the number of foreign exhibitors grows regularly.
It aims to give the perfumers and the people in charge of the purchase, the R&D, the marketing or the regulatory affairs, the possibility to discover new raw materials or news suppliers as well as meet with their usual suppliers.
The specificity of SIMPPAR is to propose the same booth fully equiped to all exhibitors, whether multinational or small producer, which significantly reduces the participation cost for 2 days exhibition.
With more than 2,000 visits in 2024, including about 200 perfumers, the number of professional visitors is strongly increasing, particularly international ones (43%).
Each SIMPPAR is also the opportunity for SFP to award its International Perfumer Prize to a young perfumer creator, followed by the traditional cocktail party.
Finally, this exhibition is well promoted and covered by the International Professional Press, which gives a good mediatisation to exhibitors.
Nowadays, it’s the oldest and largest exhibition in Europe for these products.
In 2024, it gathered :
100 exhibitors from 22 countries, with :
57 suppliers of natural products
29 suppliers of aromatic chemicals
Suppliers of packaging, perfume bottles, equipment, software

More than 2000 visitors
And 450 participants to the 2024 SFP’s International Perfumer Prize followed by the traditional cocktail party.
