24 ottobre 2024
A focus on the fragrance industry at this year’s Beautyworld Middle East will include: over 200 local and international exhibitors, the return of the exclusive niche fragrance showcase Quintessence, the popular Signature Scent competition.
Visitors will also experience the modern manufacturing techniques of Saudi Arabia’s Al-Dakheel Oud Factory in collaboration with Parfex and personalise their own scents at the Emovation Lab by MHG Group.
The global fragrance market is projected to be worth US$7.21 billion, largely driven by the UAE and Saudi Arabia according to Expert Market Research.
Dubai, UAE: The stage is set for multiple international fragrance houses to showcase their latest products and technologies during the 28th edition of Beautyworld Middle East. The region’s largest international trade fair for the beauty and wellness industries returns to Dubai World Trade Centre from 28 to 30 October, 2024.
Over 200 exhibitors from global brands to niche perfumes will showcase everything from their raw materials and ingredients to finished perfumes and private labelling, alongside a series of exclusive experiences, plus networking and knowledge building opportunities.
As well as being featured in two specific categories at the Beautyworld Middle East Awards 2024 taking place on 29 October at Conrad Hotel, Dubai, the fragrance section is the largest of the show which will run over three days.
Fragrance has always been an important part of Middle Eastern culture. Used as a form of expression, perfumes and scents are often layered and sprayed generously throughout the day. The region also pioneered unisex fragrances long before the Western world made them popular.
From the ancient oud that is considered a precious aroma to the delicate floral jasmine, Arabic perfumery offers a variety of fragrances that are popular among consumers all over the world. In fact, the blossoming fragrance market in the Middle East has recently seen region-exclusive launches from international brands such as Gold by Jean Paul Gaultier and Chistian Louboutin’s Loubiprince. Social media has had a huge part to play in promoting the strong and long-lasting fragrances of houses from the region, and amplifying their voices across the world.
McKinsey data for MENA predicts healthy CAGR growth rates for fragrance at 11% from 2022 to 2027 and projected global sales figures of $5.4 billion by 2027 for the fragrance market. Expert Market Research predicts the market will be worth $7.21 billion by 2032, largely driven by the UAE and Saudi Arabia.
Ravi Ramchandani, Show Manager, said: “This year’s Beautyworld Middle East is going to be our biggest and best show yet, with a range of new exhibitors and international guests, and a series of new experiential activations to allow visitors to fully immerse themselves in the future of the industry. It has been an incredibly exciting year for fragrance in the region, and we are delighted to welcome Jerome Viaud, Mayor of Grasse, to Beautyworld Middle East as our guest of honour.
