Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company's business strategy of building core volume and profitability,
developing products in new categories, exploring strategic acquisition
opportunities, and pursuing expansion in international markets, remains as
management's primary long-term focus. The Company's decision to relinquish its
Cutex(R) license was an integral part of a planned restructuring of the
Company's domestic operations. As a result, the Company has now more efficiently
focused its resources on its profitable core fragrance business in the United
States and around the world.
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1997
Compared to the June 30, 1996 Periods
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1997 aggregated $21.8 million, as
compared to $22.6 million for the corresponding quarter of the prior year. Net
sales for the six months ended June 30, 1997 aggregated $42.8 million, as
compared to $45.9 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. On
April 30, 1997, the Company closed on its agreement with Carson, Inc., whereby
the Company relinquished its Cutex nail and lip products license. As such, the
1997 periods only include sales of Cutex products through April 30, 1997.
The Company's Alternative Designer Fragrance lines continued to be affected in
1997 by heavy discounting by certain competitors, which commenced in the fourth
quarter of 1996. In January 1997, the Company matched the competition's pricing
structure and has regained much of the market share initially lost as a result
of such price competition. The Company lowered its selling prices after
completion of its newly developed program of product value analysis, which
assured the Company that gross margins would not be affected in the long-term.
The positive impact of the measures taken is expected to be realized in the
second half of 1997.
Sales generated by the Company's French subsidiaries increased 50% for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and 21% for the six months ended June 30, 1997, as
compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year. At comparable foreign
currency exchange rates, sales by the Company's French subsidiaries increased
67% and 35% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997,
respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year. Recent
new product introductions and product line enhancements with respect to the
Company's Burberrys line have been very successful and continue to achieve
substantial growth.
Page 6
<PAGE>
JEAN PHILIPPE FRAGRANCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Gross profit margins were 47% of sales for both the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1997, as compared to 44% and 46% for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively. As previously mentioned, in response
to heavy discounting by certain competitors in the Alternative Designer
Fragrance lines, the Company developed a program of product value analysis,
which enabled the Company to match the competition's pricing structure without
affecting gross margin in the long-term. Gross margin in the first and second
quarters of 1997 has been affected by the lower selling prices put into effect
in January 1997. The positive impact of the measures taken is expected to be
realized in the second half of 1997. However, the effect of the aforementioned
lower selling prices was offset during the six months ended June 30, 1997 by
increased margins from the Company's French subsidiaries. Such increased margins
resulted from the sale of products to customers outside of France in US dollars,
thereby benefitting from the substantial rise of the US dollar relative to the
French franc.
Selling, general and administrative expenses aggregated $8.4 million and $16.5
million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997, respectively,
as compared to $8.0 million and $15.9 million for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively. Such increases resulted from selling
expenses incurred by the Company's French subsidiaries to support new product
line introductions and build specific brand awareness. Such promotional activity
has enabled the Company's French subsidiaries to achieve excellent revenue
growth and should provide support for future revenue growth.
As a result of the April 30, 1997 relinquishment of the Cutex license, the
Company has restructured its domestic operations and reduced its domestic work
force in excess of 20%. In addition, the Company has taken a pre-tax charge
against earnings of $1.3 million in the first quarter of 1997 to write-off
intangible assets and other expenses relating to the relinquishment of the Cutex
license. Domestically, selling general and administrative expenses declined,
both in the aggregate and as a percentage of sales, during the three and six
month periods ending June 30, 1997, as compared to the corresponding periods of
the prior year.
Interest expense aggregated $152,000 and $334,000 for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1997, respectively, as compared to $198,000 and $408,000
for the corresponding periods of the prior year. The Company uses its available
credit lines, as needed, to finance its working capital needs.
The Company's effective income tax rate was 29% for both the six months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996. Both the 1997 and 1996 rates were favorably impacted by
reductions of valuation reserves on deferred tax assets, relating to the
utilization of net operating loss carryforwards, made available to the Company's
foreign subsidiaries as a result of the March 1996 sale of the Bal a Versailles
trademarks.

JEAN PHILIPPE FRAGRANCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Net income was $1.1 million or $0.12 per share for the three months ended June
30, 1997, as compared to $1.3 million or $0.13 per share for the three months
ended June 30, 1996. Net income was $1.4 million or $0.15 per share for the six
months ended June 30, 1997, as compared to $3.1 million or $0.30 per share for
the six months ended June 30, 1996. Results for the six months ended June 30,
1997 include a nonrecurring charge of $800,000, on an after tax basis, relating
to the relinquishment of the Cutex license. Excluding the nonrecurring charge,
net income was $2.2 million or $0.24 per share for the six months ended June 30,
1997.
The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 9.5 million and 9.6
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, and 10.1
million for both corresponding periods of the prior year. Such decline is the
result of the Company's ongoing stock buy back program.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's financial position continues to show solid strength as a result of
profitable operating results. At June 30, 1997, working capital aggregated $43.7
million and the Company had cash and cash equivalents on hand aggregating $21.0
million. The Company's book value per share aggregated $5.42 per share as of
June 30, 1997.
The Board of Directors of the Company has authorized the repurchase of up to
1,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock and as of June 30, 1997,
1,167,505 shares have been purchased at an average price per share of $7.34.
The Company's short-term financing requirements are expected to be met by
available cash at June 30, 1997, cash generated by operations and short-term
credit lines provided by domestic and foreign banks. The principal credit
facilities for 1997 are a $12.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit
provided by a domestic commercial bank and $12.0 million in credit lines
provided by a consortium of international financial institutions.
Operating activities provided $4.1 million of net cash from operations for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $1.2 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1996. The nonrecurring charge of $1.3 million, taken in the first
quarter of 1997, is primarily a noncash charge relating to the write-off of
intangible assets associated with the relinquishment of the Company's Cutex
license. On April 30, 1997, such transaction closed and all current inventory
was purchased and certain liabilities were assumed by Carson Products Company.

Management of the Company believes that funds generated from operations,
supplemented by its available credit facilities, will provide it with sufficient
resources to meet all present and reasonably foreseeable future operating needs.
Inflation rates in the U.S. and foreign countries in which the Company operates
have not had a significant impact on operating results for the period ended June
30, 1997.
