Italy Perfume Market Overview, 2029

The Italy perfume market, valued at more than USD 2 Billion in 2023, is growing due to rising personal care spending and a strong tradition in fragrance.

The use of perfume in Italy dates back to ancient times, when perfume culture was established within the Greco-Roman civilization. Finally, the word perfume comes from the Latin word "per fumum," which means "through smoke." The Romans burned the leaves, crushed the flowers, and used the wood chips and aromatic resin as offerings to the gods, but also used oils and essences to perfume both their hair and bodies. Venetian merchant Marco began his journey and discovery to strengthen the spice trade in Europe, paving the way for new fragrance options. In fact, it's amazing to learn that many of the fragrance's roots go back to Venice. Perfume is closely tied to the customs of Italy, especially southern Italy. It is a form of courtesy, grace, and ritual that is inevitable at social gatherings. Salvatore Ferragamo, Giorgio Armani, Bulgari, Acqua di Parma, Dolce & Gabbana Groupe, Sephora, Gucci, Jo Malone, Givaudan, Gianni Versace, Marionnaud Parfumeries Italia SRL are the key players in Italy Perfume Market. Production is unevenly distributed in a geographic sense, with over 50% of manufacturing centers and companies in the northern region of Lombardy, followed by Emilia Romagna with around 10% and Veneto with almost 8%. The north largely predominates the south in terms of manufacturing, with the three southern regions not even ranking due to low production levels. Every year, Italy hosts seven free perfume expos to help spread the word about new fragrances. According to Research Report “Italy Perfume Market Overview, 2029” published by Bonafide research, the Italy Perfume market was valued at more than USD 2 Billion in 2023. The Italy perfume market is gaining momentum due to rising personal care trends and growing demand for exotic scents for young people. Moreover, product diversification by manufacturers is attracting more consumer segments. Apart from that, rising consumer spending on luxury fragrances due to rising income levels and rising living standards continues to boost perfume sales. Other major factors propelling the demand for perfumes worldwide are rapid urbanization, increasing population and aggressive advertising by the manufacturers. However, the availability of counterfeit goods is one of the biggest challenges for the market. In general, Italian customers are open to unusual and enveloping scents like as incense, ambroxan, oud, and vanilla. But what distinguishes Italians is their desire to be distinctive, different, and non-standard in comparison to everyone else. Italy has the highest per capita perfume usage rate. In general, the perfume approach is quite open, forward-thinking, and unbiased, and it is also a fantastic signal of change and novelty.

Covid-19 Impact: The COVID-19 crisis has accelerated the transformation of the sector, especially regarding distribution, a key link in the perfume value chain. Leading perfumers have had to compensate for brick-and-mortar store closures by expanding digital sales channels, especially specialized e-commerce sites. Faced with this trend, brick-and-mortar retailers must innovate and communicate to keep customers engaged in their stores. The ones most likely to buck this trend are large, powerful networks that are either bringing independent brands into the group or risking their disappearance. Online retailers are recognizing growing interest as home consumers seek alternatives to retail. Some cosmetics brands, inventories, and mail-order retailers have reported doubling their e-commerce sales compared to pre-COVID-19.
