Jean Madar, chairman and CEO of Inter Parfums, said, “I am very proud of the Dunhill fragrance business we built over the past decade. We took over the Dunhill fragrance license in April 2013 and, in the intervening years, brought to market several fragrance pillars for the brand, including the Icon and Signature collections. We intend to continue to support the Dunhill brand and our distributors during the transition period.”
He concluded, “Looking forward, we are focused on growing our larger brands, reinvigorating the fragrance businesses of our newly licensed brands, and expanding our brand portfolio.”
