Business segments
Interparfums reports two operating and reportable segments: **European based operations** and **United States based operations**. These are operational/geographic groupings rather than separate product categories; the company reports one product line, fragrances and fragrance-related products. European based operations are primarily located in France and include Interparfums Luxury Brands, Inc. in the United States. United States based operations are primarily located in the United States and include Interparfums Italia Srl in Italy. Both segments primarily represent sales of prestige brand-name fragrances.[29][30]
By reported segment net sales before intercompany eliminations, European based operations contributed approximately **67.8%** in FY2025 ($1,016.3 million of $1,498.7 million), while United States based operations contributed approximately **32.2%** ($482.4 million).[31] For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the respective contributions were approximately **69.8%** ($483.3 million of $692.2 million) and **30.2%** ($208.9 million).[32] These percentages are calculated from the reported segment figures; the filing separately presents intercompany eliminations.
