Introduction
The fragrance industry—where art, science, and emotion intertwine—has shaped human culture for millennia. From ancient rituals to cutting-edge laboratories, scent has always held the power to captivate and connect. In this ever-evolving landscape, SIMPPAR (Salon International des Matières Premières pour la Parfumerie) stands out as a premier global event devoted exclusively to raw materials for perfumery. Far more than a trade show, SIMPPAR is a vibrant platform that celebrates innovation, heritage, sustainability, and international collaboration.
A Legacy of Excellence
Founded in 1991 by the French Society of Perfumers (SFP), SIMPPAR was created to promote exchange and advancement in the field of fragrance ingredients. What began as a specialized gathering has grown into one of the fragrance industry's most respected events. Held every two years, each edition brings together leading suppliers, chemists, and creators to unveil their latest discoveries—from rare botanical treasures to groundbreaking synthetic molecules.
