Overview

This is not a shopping tour, it’s a journey into French style and luxury. It’s not about exclusive access, it’s an understanding of the culture, craftsmanship and ideas behind French luxury – something few visitors ever gain. Suitable for both men and women.

Explore the MAD at the Louvre, home to some of the world's finest collections of French luxury, fashion, and design. Then stroll Rue Saint-Honoré—the heart of Parisian fashion—with fresh insight into the houses that have shaped French luxury. Finish by creating your own fragrance at France's iconic perfume house, Fragonard.

What to expect

  1. Musee des Arts Decoratifs
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Begin at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, the national vault of French craftsmanship located inside the Louvre Palace. With your private expert, you will go beyond simple display to discover objects designed to be lived with—from furniture and fashion to jewelry and tableware. You will come face-to-face with pieces created for the courts of the Sun King, Marie-Antoinette, and Napoleon. Your guide will help you decode the design principles and rare materials, such as gold, mother-of-pearl, and shagreen, that still rule Parisian style and daily life today
  2. Pass by
    Continue with your private guide through the Tuileries Gardens and along the elegant streets of Rue Saint-Honoré to see where Parisian style lives today. This walking tour decodes the window displays of iconic houses like Chanel, Cartier, and Yves Saint Laurent. Rather than a shopping trip, this is a masterclass in the 'quiet art' of Parisian elegance. Your expert will explain how Parisians use silhouettes and materials to express confidence without excess, and how the city's architecture and street layout influence how style is worn. You'll also learn the art of the café terrace—choosing the right seat and observing the city's unique attitude toward fashion.
  3. Rue Saint Honore
    15m
    fashion stores all keep their flagship stores on rue saint-honoré
  4. Palais Garnier
    Pass by
    where Parisians get to show off all this fashion and glamour
  5. Fragonard Parfumeur
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Your finale takes place at Fragonard’s perfume atelier and workshop, where you will discover the subtle language of fragrance as an expression of identity and taste. Guided by a fragrance expert, you will participate in a hands-on perfume workshop to create your own personalized eau de toilette. You will learn how perfumes are built, how various ingredients interact, and how geography and generations of French know-how shape excellence in perfumery. At the end of the session, you will take your unique creation home as a refined and personal souvenir of your Parisian experience
