The best spots for glamorous Parisian eroticism
If Paris is undeniably the city of love and romance, it’s also the capital of eroticism! For beneath its wise exterior, the City of Light is much more frivolous than it seems. Here are a few things you can do as a couple to get a little randy…
Spend the evening at Secret Square
This year, Secret Square celebrates its 10th anniversary with great fanfare. The first (and only!) cabaret-restaurant offers a refined, aphrodisiac menu alongside its sensual shows, and has built up a loyal following. With its selection of grand cru wines and vintage champagne, dinner sets the tone. Then it’s just a short stroll down a few steps to admire the spectacle of dancers in states of undress, for an affriending show that lasts… until dawn !
Secret Square, 27 Avenue des Ternes, 75017 Paris. 01 47 66 45 00

See a show at Crazy Horse
The Crazy Horse is the ideal place to start your evening. There’s no room for vulgarity here: all you can admire are the dancers’ pretty legs and lined-up buttocks. Their famous “Totally Crazy” show features a succession of avant-garde, modern tableaux by artistic director Philippe Decouflé… A must-see!
