Impact of COVID-19 on the United States Fragrance Market

Another impact of the pandemic on the fragrance market is the closure of physical retail stores, including department stores and specialty fragrance stores, which has led to a decline in sales. However, online sales of fragrance products have increased, as consumers have turned to e-commerce platforms to purchase their favourite scents. Therefore, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a mixed impact on the fragrance market in the United States.
