Perfume Market Analysis

Based on Product Type, the market is segmented into parfum or De Parfum, Eau De Parfum (EDP), Eau De Toilette (EDT), Eau De Cologne (EDC) and Other (Eau Fraiche, Perfume Oil). The Eau De Parfum (EDP)segment dominated the market in 2023, generating a revenue of USD 13.8 billion, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5% during the forecast period from 2024-2032.
