FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

INTER PARFUMS, INC. PROVIDES GUIDANCE FOR 2004 SALES AND EARNINGS

AND INCREASES ESTIMATES FOR 2003

New York, New York, December 1, 2003: Inter Parfums, Inc. (NASDAQ National Market: IPAR) today announced that it increased its 2003
sales estimate to $182 million and increased its 2003 net income estimate to $13.4 million or $.67 per diluted share.  The Company also
provided initial guidance for 2004, with sales of approximately $206 million and net income of approximately $15 million, assuming the dollar
remains at current levels. 

As previously reported, the record results of 2003 are due to the continued growth by prestige fragrance lines, and initial sales of the Burberry
Brit women's line, which began in the third quarter.  The focus for 2004 will be the continued rollout of the Burberry Brit line in Asia, South
America and the Middle East.  Other planned new fragrance launches include:  S.T. Dupont, Paul Smith and Christian Lacroix.  The Company
is also in discussions to acquire or license additional brands in the areas of perfumes and personal care products.  However, these are
preliminary discussions and there can be no assurances that any of these discussions will result in a new license or brand acquisition.

Statements in this release which are not historical in nature are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results to be
materially different from projected results. Such factors include effectiveness of sales and marketing efforts and product
acceptance by consumers, dependence upon management, competition, currency fluctuation and international tariff
and trade barriers and governmental regulation.  Given these uncertainties, persons are cautioned not to place undue
reliance on the forward-looking statements.

Inter Parfums develops, manufactures and distributes prestige perfumes and cosmetics as the exclusive worldwide licensee for
Burberry, S.T. Dupont, Paul Smith, Christian Lacroix, Celine, and Diane von Furstenberg.  It is also a leading producer and
supplier of mass market fragrances, cosmetics and personal care products.  The Company's products are sold in over 100
countries worldwide.
