Meticulously planned my trip to Paris, which always gives me joy for me. I love Paris in the Spring. Paris is elegance, politesse and faded glamour all rolled in one. Love to have lunch at Le Grand Café in Paris. Or one of the most beautiful restaurants in Paris - Train Bleu, which I have previously visited.
Astoundingly I’ve still not scaled the majestic Eiffel Tower. The Icon of Paris. Must visit is the oldest pastry shop in Paris since 1730 next time.
Parisian Mistress Friends
Paris is more than a trip, it’s a chance to reconnect with my darling Mistress Ms Lupa Mannara (below right). She’s a creative and intense French dominatrix based in Paris (and London), renowned for her latex expertise, sadistic flair, and playful BDSM sessions that blend enigma, skills, and artistic deviation.
Maîtresse Isadora (below left) is a renowned professional dominatrix based in Paris, celebrated for her elegant and immersive approach to BDSM. We met on the first evening. First we went to Vous Mousier, then for a cocktail. With over nine years of experience as a domina, she crafts personalised sessions that blend psychological depth, sensory intensity, and sophisticated domination within her fully equipped play space. Known for her refined style and expertise in the French BDSM scene, she offers everything from cerebral power exchange to more intense practices, while maintaining a devoted lifestyle presence that emphasizes consent, ritual, and transformative control.
Kinky shopping
Vous Monsieur is a unique concept store tucked away at 18 Rue du Vertbois in Paris’s 3rd arrondissement, right in the heart of the lively Le Marais neighborhood. Created by Gabrielle and Monsieur, the boutique is often called “L’Appartement” as it feels more like stepping into a stylish, intimate Parisian home than a BDSM shop. It blends sensuality, artistry, and focus on a curated experiences rather than just products: think French-made, handmade pieces that celebrate desire, sexuality, creativity, and playful exploration.
Inside, you’ll find an eclectic selection of high-quality lingerie (both daywear and nightwear), erotic accessories, sex toys, BDSM essentials like restraints, cuffs, and impact tools, plus sensual jewelry such as chokers and earrings, and even temporary temptations like fishnet stockings or fantasy tights. There are also unisex clothing items, sexual cosmetics, and a secret wardrobe for renting fetish outfits for special evenings. It’s warm and welcoming making shopping feel intimate and inspiring. How cute is this candle they gifted me for wax play?
Visitors to Paris should definitely drop in because it’s a refreshing departure from typical tourist spots or generic shops: it’s artistic, empowering, and unapologetically French in its celebration of eroticism. Parisian sensuality and a memorable experience. Open most days, but check hours on the site.
Kinky learning
Moving onto Kink Study, located at 64 Boulevard de Sébastopol in the heart of Paris's 3rd arrondissement, is where Isadora conducted a womens kink workshop/demonstration. This is France's pioneering school and community hub dedicated to creative sexualities and kink exploration. This vibrant space hosts the École des Arts Sadiens, offering workshops, trainings, and educational programs on topics ranging from BDSM practices and Shibari rope work to Tantra and beyond, while also welcoming therapists, coaches, associations, and open events for individuals and couples. With its welcoming café associatif open Wednesday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., a free-access library, and regular portes ouvertes days, Kink Study fosters a safe, consensual, and positive environment for learning, connection, and self-discovery in the world of alternative intimacies.
Kinky clubbing
Every Friday afternoon in the vibrant heart of Paris, from 3 PM to 8 PM at the intimate venue known as Le Pandora or Château des Lys on 103 rue Marcadet in the 18th arrondissement, the legendary Les Goûters du Divin Marquis or affectionately called Les Goutiers, unfolds as a cherished daytime BDSM and fetish event that has been delighting straight-oriented kink enthusiasts for over two decades under the warm and welcoming stewardship of Ness Harper, drawing novices, seasoned players, and the simply curious into a safe, consensual space of exploration where the air hums with the soft clink of chains, the whisper of leather against skin, the rhythmic cadence of impact play echoing through dimly lit rooms adorned with thoughtfully arranged play stations, suspension frames, and cozy aftercare corners, all while participants in elegant fetish attire or minimalistic elegance sip refreshments, exchange knowing glances, negotiate scenes with meticulous attention to SSC or RACK principles, and lose themselves in the delicious thrill of power exchange, dominance and submission, bondage, sensory deprivation, or whatever flavour of kinky indulgence calls to their souls during this weekly afternoon ritual that stands as one of the most enduring and beloved institutions in the French BDSM scene.

Paris shopping and eating
Brunch at one of Lupa’s favourite places - Cafe Des Anges. Dog friendly too as she was looking after a friend’s sausage dog. I had eggs Benedict with salmon for 9.90€. Great artwork reminded me of the Beetles Sargent Peppers album cover.
Stepping out on my own was a big deal for me as usually i was escorted by Lupa. Having been half a dozen times now I felt I knew the city more and my way around the Metro.
Saturday was spent on a walking shopping trip. First stop Officine Universelle Buly (also known as Buly 1803) is a Parisian beauty boutique that revives the spirit of a historic 19th-century apothecary perfumery. Founded in its modern form in 2014 by Ramdane Touhami and Victoire de Taillac, it draws on ancestral beauty rituals from around the world while blending them with contemporary techniques. The shops feature a timeless, romantic atmosphere with dark wood paneling, aged cabinets, marble countertops, and vintage inspired details that evoke old-world pharmacies or cabinets of curiosities. They offer a wide range of natural, botanical-based products; including perfumes, scented oils, soaps, creams, powders, hair accessories (like hand-carved combs), and home fragrances. In Paris, notable locations include the original boutique at 6 rue Bonaparte (6th arrondissement) and others in the Marais (e.g., 45 rue de Saintonge) and other districts. It's one of the most unique and enchanting beauty destinations in the city. My purchases included orange, clove and ginger toothpaste.
On route to my next store I found a great hat shop call Anthony Peto, which I returned to another day and purchaced a hat similar to this one.
Gloves are another love of mine and I felt sure when I found this one - Acaba they would have powder blue summer gloves. Alas only in leather and I wanted cotton.
Embroiderie shop - Annie Bouquet was very close and I can certaily see myself taking up needlepoint in the future, as it looks so relaxing.
Vintage facades dry me like a magnet. I think little confectioners - Epicerie de Choix was delightful. I purchased violet sweets.
Next scheduled stop on my walk was Oriza L. Legrand perfumeur. This house was the official supplier to the French court (until Napoleon III) as well as to the royal courts of England, Russia, and Italy. It was known for its refined, complex fragrances and innovations like the first steam-powered perfume factory.
After a long dormancy, the historic brand was revived in 2012 by Franck Belaiche and Hugo Lambert. Today it faithfully recreates heirloom formulas using high-quality, artisanal methods while adding modern touches. Its scents are often described as rich, sophisticated, and vintage-inspired (think elegant chypres, florals, and orientals with great depth and concentration). You can visit their charming Parisian boutique at 34 bis rue Vignon, 75009 Paris (near Madeleine). The house also offers eaux de parfum, perfume extracts, and historical products like perfumed cosmetic vinegars. In short: a true piece of French olfactory heritage with royal, historic, and still producing beautiful, characterful perfumes today. So I purchased the Violette du Czar.
Lupa and I met at Clignancourt Metro station and went to the flea market(commonly known as the Marché aux Puces de Saint-Ouen or simply "Les Puces") is Paris's largest and most famous flea market. It sits just outside the northern edge of central Paris in the suburb of Saint-Ouen (Seine-Saint-Denis department). It originated in the late 19th century when rag-and-bone men sold secondhand goods near the old city gates. This sprawling market covers about 17 acres with over 1,700 traders across around 15 distinct covered markets, alleys, and open-air sections. It attracts up to 100,000–180,000 visitors on busy weekends. You'll find a mix of:
- High-end antiques and vintage items (furniture, jewelry, art, books, decorative objects, 19th–20th-century pieces).
- Vintage clothing, records, toys, and curiosities.
- Some more everyday or lower-end stalls with bric-à-brac, though the core areas focus on collectibles rather than pure junk.
The atmosphere of this labyrinthine is vibrant, with narrow passages lined by permanent stalls and shops in warehouses or open courtyards. It's a treasure-hunt experience. Bargaining is common, and quality varies widely (from genuine antiques to reproductions). Some sections feel upscale with polished dealers, while others are more chaotic and touristy. It operates mainly on weekends and I always go on a Sunday for the fullest experience. The market doesn't have one single address but centers on Rue des Rosiers in Saint-Ouen. A common reference point/entrance is around 110–142 Rue des Rosiers, 93400 Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine (e.g., near the Malassis or Vernaison markets). I found three vinyl records this trip.
It's a fun, atmospheric spot for browsing, though watch your belongings! The perfect spot for live jazz on a Sunday afternoon right in the heart of the Clignancourt/Saint-Ouen flea market is La Chope des Puces. I like to get a pastis and chips and enjoy some music before leaving. Address: 122 Rue des Rosiers, 93400 Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine.
Monday I met Lupa and visited the Leonora Carrington exhibition at the Musée du Luxembourg (til 19 July 2026) is the first major retrospective in France dedicated to the British-Mexican surrealist artist (1917–2011). It gathers 126 works of paintings, drawings, and more. This traces her extraordinary career through mythology, alchemy, feminism, psychic transformation, and hybrid human, animal worlds. Expect dreamlike scenes filled with chimeric creatures; white horses, hyenas, mystical figures, and symbolic narratives that blend personal trauma, spiritual quest, and radical freedom. A concise, immersive dive into one of Surrealism’s most singular and visionary female voices. Address: 19 rue de Vaugirard, 75006 Paris.
Returning to the hat shop on morning of my departure, I picked up my new hat (I'd chosen a new ribbon). Had brunch with Lupa, and then took the Eurostar home.
Rather wonderfully I was invited to this exclusive event, however I will be in Spain and unable to attend. Check it out! Contact Madam de Maison Chardon
In conclusion, everytime I go to paris and get to know it more and more, I feel like I could live there.
