The acquisition is expected to be completed on December 2. For the past three years, fragrances have been managed in-house following the end the brand’s contract with L’Oréal.

Alex Bolen, Chief Executive Officer of Oscar de la Renta, LLC commented, “Over the last few years, we are pleased to have re-established Oscar de la Renta as an important brand in prestige fragrances. Our critical efforts to rebuild in-house created a strong business that is well-positioned for the next phase of development in the fragrance and beauty category. Having reached this point, it became clear that Inter Parfums would make an ideal partner that can leverage its global sales, marketing and production expertise to build upon what we have created, while accelerating growth domestically and internationally.”
