      LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton S.A., a French societe anonyme ("LVMH"),
hereby amends and supplements its Report on Schedule 13D, originally filed on
August 4, 1999 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed on September 28,
1999, the "Schedule 13D"), with respect to the purchase of shares of Common
Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Shares"), of Inter Parfums, Inc.
(formerly known as Jean Philippe Fragrances, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the
"Issuer"). Unless otherwise indicated, each capitalized terms used but not
defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Schedule 13D.

      This Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D is filed in accordance with Rule
13d-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, by LVMH. It shall
refer only to the information that has materially changed since the filing of
the Schedule 13D.

      Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

      Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is amended by restating the second sentence of
the second paragraph thereof as follows:

          "The Agreement in Principle contemplates that LV Capital will purchase
     additional Common Shares from the Shareholders and other management and
     employees of the Issuer, at a purchase price of $12 per Common Share, so
     that at the closing of such purchase LV Capital will own 20% of the
     outstanding Common Shares (including any Common Shares then owned by LV
     Capital that were obtained other than pursuant to the Agreement in
     Principle)."

     Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

      (i) Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is amended by restating the first sentence
of paragraph (a) - (b) thereof to read as follows:

      "LVMH beneficially owns, through LV Capital, an aggregate of 774,600
Common Shares representing 10.5% of the outstanding Common Shares (based upon
7,347,789 Common Shares which the Issuer has informed LVMH are outstanding as of
October 25, 1999)."

      (ii) Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is further amended by inserting the
following language at the end of paragraph (c) thereof:

      "The following purchases were effected through the Nasdaq Stock Market on
behalf of LVMH and LV Capital:

Date:                   Aggregate Number of Shares       Average Price per Share
