Parisian Chic

The Maison's signature fragrance embodies the Parisian quintessence through sensual notes of leather and cedar. The Maisons' two fragrances were imagined by François Demachy, the former nose of the House of Dior.

The Paris of Parisians awakens in the heart of the city. From one page of history to another, from Notre-Dame to the Louvre, the lively alleyways of the Marais make the Parisian experience unique, rich and intense. Along the banks of the Seine, the famous bouquinistes of the quaysides will intoxicate you during the day. In the evening, the legendary addresses of the Left Bank and Saint-Germain-des-Prés beckon. Opposite Rue de Rivoli, La Samaritaine is writing a new chapter in the history of the famous department store. A story of audacity, resolutely anchored in modernity. A department store open to the neighborhood and the city, where fashion, lifestyle and gastronomy embody the casual chic so characteristic of Paris. A lively address that reflects the spirit and magic of the capital. A must-see destination for travelers, a rendezvous for all Parisians. Sous le Pont-Neuf coule la Seine. In the heart of the City of Light, a stone's throw from the Louvre and the Marais, facing the Left Bank, stands the majestic Cheval Blanc Paris.

Cheval Blanc Paris radiates Art Deco heritage and contemporary spirit, in the heart of a historic building. Thanks to the ingenuity of architect Edouard François, the Samaritaine façade has been entirely preserved. Our Parisian Maison lives to the rhythm of the Seine and pays tribute to French know-how and craftsmanship. Nestled in the historic birthplace of Parisian department stores, our House embodies the values of excellence and innovation, supported not only by the LVMH group but also by the Cognacq-Jay couple, founders of the Samaritaine.
