The leading global event for personal care and cosmetic ingredients, In-Cosmetics Global, will take place this year in Paris, France, from April 14-16, 2026, at the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles. It will feature over 1,000 suppliers and 12,000 personal care professionals. For this new edition, Cosmo International Fragrances unveils an exclusive fragrance collection that transforms scent into an emotional performance. Inspired by the vibrant world of the circus, where balance, thrill, and wonder coexist, the collection features a curated range of fragrances designed for multiple applications across Personal Care, Fine Fragrance, Air Care, and beyond. Each creation acts as a performer, using scent to surprise, uplift, and restore in moments of emotional intensity. Rooted in the desire to feel lighter, steadier, and more joyful amid life’s uncertainties, the collection unfolds through four evocative acts: Energy, Balance, Calm, and Joy. Together, these acts invite the audience into a scented spectacle where fragrance becomes both safety net and spotlight, an immersive olfactive journey where emotions take center stage. “Today, fragrance is expected to do more than simply smell beautiful. Consumers are increasingly drawn to scents that connect with their emotional state and enhance everyday well-being,” says Katie Bell, Global Marketing & Communications Director at the company. “With Cirque des Merveilles, we wanted to translate this emotional dimension into a playful and multisensory fragrance experience inspired by the magic and dynamism of the circus.” Each application features an exclusive ingredient or technology developed by the company. A selection of ingredients tested to trigger emotional responses will be highlighted: the energizing Ginger Peru CO2, the focus-enhancing Petitgrain Lime Colombia Oil, the calming Golden Berry Upcycled Colombia CO2, the relaxing Jasmine Craftivity™, and the joy-inducing Cacao Blanc Craftivity™. “Our work with mood-tested ingredients allows us to design fragrances that intentionally support emotional responses,” said Anne-Laure André, Project Manager for the Natural Ingredients Division at Cosmo International Fragrances. “Through our collaboration with Dr. Olga Alexandre and OSTMR® research, we explore how specific natural ingredients can influence emotional states, helping perfumers create fragrances that resonate on a deeper sensory and emotional level.” Among its innovations, the company will present AquaElixir™, its exclusive 100% water-based technology for alcohol-free fragrances. This advanced green technology offers high sensory performance and skin-friendly properties, delivering a completely transparent formula with up to 20% fragrance. The company will also present ScentSilent® Natural, a technology designed for malodor reduction with strong potential in the growing pet care market, as well as ScentBloom® Biodegradable, an exclusive 100% biodegradable solvent blend.
