Natural Notes will return to Beautyworld Dubai for its second edition Oct. 6–8, bringing seven natural perfumery ingredient producers together in a dedicated showcase within the fragrance compounds hall. The initiative, presented by Messe Frankfurt Middle East in partnership with Resperfuma, puts growers, harvesters and distillers directly in front of perfumers, buyers and fragrance houses.
The 2026 lineup spans key natural materials and sourcing regions, including Alta Oils for Bulgarian rose and lavender, Capua for Italian bergamot and citrus, FP Aromatics for Indonesian sandalwood, Jasmine CE for Indian flowers and vetiver, PT Van Aroma for Indonesian patchouli, Som Extracts for Indian mints and Verger for Sri Lankan spices.
Beyond ingredient discovery, Natural Notes is positioned around the increasingly important issues of sourcing, traceability, biodiversity, producer-community partnerships and supply-chain resilience. The showcase will also feature a Day 2 panel, “The Natural Advantage: How brands can partner with natural ingredients producers to drive value,” moderated by Resperfuma Founder & CEO Virginie Gervason and featuring representatives from Jasmine C.E., PT Van Aroma, Verger Naturals and FP Aromatics.
