INTER PARFUMS, INC. REPORTS 28.3% INCREASE IN 2017 FIRST QUARTER SALES

Affirms 2017 Guidance

New York, New York, April 27, 2017: Inter Parfums, Inc. (NASDAQ GS: IPAR) today reported that for the three months ended March 31, 2017, net sales increased 28.3% to $143.1 million from $111.5 million in the first quarter of 2016. At comparable foreign currency exchange rates, consolidated first quarter net sales increased 30.6% as compared to the prior year period. Inter Parfums plans to issue results for the 2017 first quarter on or about May 9, 2017.

NetSales:

Discussing European based operations Jean Madar, Chairman & CEO of Inter Parfums stated, "The 57% increase in Jimmy Choo fragrance sales was a driving force behind the nearly 30% increase in net sales by European based operations. It is especially gratifying that the growth in Jimmy Choo brand sales was attributable to women's and men's legacy scents dating back from 2011 and 2014, respectively, as well as to the recent launch of spin-off lines,Jimmy Choo L'Eaufor women andJimmy Choo Man Ice. Lanvin made a major comeback in the current first quarter as brand sales rose 46% thanks to Lanvin's star performer,Éclat d'Arpègecoupled with the international launch ofModern Princess. Rochas fragrance sales increased 43% based on the strength of the brand's historic lines plus initial sales ofMademoiselle Rochas, the first new product initiative since the brand was acquired in 2015. Coach fragrances contributed about $8 million to first quarter sales with the continued rollout of the brand's signature scent for women which debuted in mid-2016. Montblanc brand sales declined 10% in the current first quarter because of a difficult comparison as there was a 29% increase in 2016 first quarter sales when the highly successful scent, MontblancLegend Spiritwas launched."

Discussing U.S. based operations, Mr. Madar noted, "We are very pleased with the performance of Abercrombie & Fitch and Hollister fragrances. They have been growth catalysts for our U.S. based operations since the launch of their respective brands' new products in mid-2016 and are chiefly responsible for the greater than 20% increase in sales. Another reason for the top line growth was an upturn in Anna Sui brand sales as economic conditions in China, a strong market for the brand, have been improving."

2017 Guidance

Russell Greenberg, Executive Vice President and CFO of Inter Parfums, Inc. stated, "First quarter sales were exceptionally strong due in part to the timing of several major launches. However, we don't expect year-over-year growth of this kind in the remaining quarters of the year and we therefore remain cautious and affirm our 2017 guidance. As previously reported, we are looking for net sales in the range of $550 million to $560 million and net income attributable to Inter Parfums, Inc. in the range of $1.20 to $1.24 per diluted share. Guidance assumes the dollar remains at current levels."
