Top 3 Fragrance Ingredient Trends from SIMPPAR 2025

2 weeks ago | perfumerflavorist.com | Emily Little

The International Exhibition of Raw Materials for Perfumery (SIMPPAR), held June 4 and 5 in Paris, allowed attendees to explore a wide range of ingredients and solutions for the fragrance industry. Across the show floor, I saw blotter sticks wafted under noses and observed so many conversations about new applications for these ingredients. The enthusiasm was contagious, and the spirit of innovation could be felt throughout the expo hall.
What I Learned About Fragrance Today Is …

3 weeks ago | perfumerflavorist.com | Emily Little

I’ve officially been the editor of Perfumer & Flavorist+ for a little over six months now, and in those six months I have learned so much about this industry. Everyone I have met has been so welcoming and helped me learn all of the little nuances that go into fragrance formulation. I truly don’t think I’ll ever stop being impressed when I learn about a new technology or innovation. Maybe it’s the chemist in me, but there’s something so satisfying about seeing an experiment come to fruition.
Editor's Note: Mint to Be

1 month ago | perfumerflavorist.com | Emily Little

When I was a kid, I absolutely HATED the flavor of mint. I didn’t understand why restaurants gave out after-dinner mints or why every single toothpaste had to be mint-flavored. Mint gave me a burning sensation rather than a cooling one, and it was entirely too overwhelming for my young palate. But of course, as I grew up and my tastes changed, I realized the error of my ways. Now I look forward to enjoying a peppermint mocha during the holidays and a scoop of mint chip ice cream in the summer.
The Customer is Always Right

2 months ago | perfumerflavorist.com | Emily Little

I truly love reading consumer trend reports. I love seeing what people are interested in and what they think are the most important aspects of their purchases. Do they place price ahead of health benefits, or are they looking for something to help them feel better regardless of the cost? It’s fascinating to compare the results to my own values when it comes to both flavor and fragrance products. I want to see how my views stack up with the rest of the world.
Someone Had To Say It. I

Emily Rose Little·Follow7 min read·--Couldn’t get enough of the last article, eh? Well, here we are again. Get comfortable, because this one’s a stinger. “What could she possibly have left to say after that manifesto last time?” Oh, don’t you worry, I’ve got plenty. So, I was doom-scrolling TikTok today — as you do — and a video by UK 999 News pops up. The headline? “Hero hospital patient talked a maniac terrorist out of detonating a device in a maternity wing.

I Have a PhD In Perinatal Health. Here’s The 1 Thing That Still Shocked Me About Giving Birth.

Feb 21, 2025 | aol.com | Emily Little

As a global maternal health researcher and the leader of the nonprofit Nurturely, I unintentionally spent the past decade preparing for the moment I would become a mother. I read every book on birth and postpartum. I took — and even taught — every class. I read every “I was an OBGYN and even I didn’t know...” article written by professionals who thought they were prepared then ended up anything but. I knew the stats, the physiology, the history.

Due to Supply Chain Constraints…

Feb 1, 2025 | perfumerflavorist.com | Emily Little

There’s a common joke in my family whenever a gift doesn’t arrive on time or there is an unexpected change in plans. We say, “Due to supply chain constraints, we’re going to dinner on Tuesday instead of Wednesday,” or “Due to supply chain issues, your birthday present will arrive sometime in the next two months.” It’s a catch-all that encompasses every possible situation. The term “supply chain” has become a bit of a monolith in recent years, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic.
