Like an enchanting Aladdin, you have stolen
her heart. A sweetheart who is far
from imagining that you have the most
extraordinary concentration of happiness
poised between
your hands : a magic lamp. A magic lamp
which today we will entrust you with so
that it will grant you your dearest wish
: to declare your love in a palace of
a thousand and one nights.
|
|
|
 |
|
Sometime between 8 and 8 :30pm, your hotel's
reception or the chauffeur himself will
invite you to go outside to a majestic
1967 Fleetwood Cadillac.
Your chauffeur will drive
you across the French capital's most somber
streets, before abandoning you beside
an immense concrete building which will
appear to be an uninhabited ghost castle.
|
 |
|
You'll be guided along a path traced out
by only a few rose petals on the ground,
and hidden within a labyrinth of hallways
and elevators darkened by lugubrious graffiti
and drenched in an intimidating, heavy
silence that will only be broken by the
buzzing of dying neon lights.
The path will eventually
lead you to the foot of an imposing steel
door on the third floor. After knocking
three times at the door it will open under
the aegis of an 18th century gentleman
armed with a candlestick in his hand who
will graciously invite you follow him.
|
|
Open your eyes - you'll
be in paradise ! In front of you will
lie a most extraordinarily divine display
- a smooth and luxurious apotheosis: a
temple of a thousand and one nights which
combines baroque beauty with oriental
abundance. You'll be dazzled by the
place's incredible wealth and opulence
while being enrobed by one of Verdi's
operatic symphonies sung by truly powerful
voices and savoring a glass of smooth
champagne spiced with a touch of rose
flavored vodka.
|
|

|
|
The charmingly enchanted palace's six
hundred and sixty six square feet will
be all yours, from its two columns of
statues, to the Venetian frescoes, Raphael's
angels and the oriental brockets.
The palace will be garnished
and adorned with hundreds of fresh flowers
and lit by the enchanting glow of an irrational
number of candles which will paint the
ornaments and gilding with shimmering
soft colors and create a soft, private
and infinitely romantic atmosphere.
|
|

|
|
You'll then have you appetite deliciously
whet as you sample a platter of miraculous
appetizers that'll have been concocted
especially for you. For you: lobster cannelloni
with Impérial de France caviar, red tuna
and ginger sushi rolls, tandoori style
chicken cannelloni, crunchy pieces of
spices honey bread with semi-cooked foie
gras and fresh mango brunoise.
|
|
After having savored your glass of champagne
while relaxing on a bed of cushions or
in one of the temple's numerous satiny
niches, you'll be invited over to your
table for a gourmet, oriental flavored
dinner which will have been prepared by
a great chef.
While seated at the two
extremes of the massive, rangy table (sixteen
feet in length) during your intimate dinner
for two, you'll enjoy intoxicatingly exquisite
dishes as you're gently rocked by the
assuaging serenades of oriental music.
|
|

|
|
You'll begin your meal with a ratte potato
and black truffle mousse which will leave
you floating on a cloud of succulent flavors.
An artichoke poivrade with semi-cooked
foie gras and argon oil, and a herb salad
with pieces of spiced honey cake and balsamic
vinegar will carry you all the way to
the Garden of Eden. You'll be sure to
have broken down the walls to paradise
when you taste a lobster in curried butter
with aromatic rice laced with parmeggiano.
You'll then be able to
share in the generous flavors of various
cheeses : Brie de Meaux, Cantal, Bleu
d'Auvergne, Munster, Crottin de Chavignol...
Throughout your journey across the world
of flavors and aromas, you'll enjoy a
Chablis Premier Cru Montmains 2003, a
Saint-Estèphe Château Phélan-Ségur 1999,
and a bottle of champagne. For dessert,
an exceptional Ruinart Brut Blanc de Blancs
champagne will accompany your Grand
Cru chocolate trilogy: extra bitter
chocolate cake with dark chocolate lace,
old fashioned warm chocolate verrine and
nougat with bitter dark chocolate sorbet.
|
|
As your meal progresses and you're enrobed
in the magically baroque atmosphere, you'll
have just one dream: to approach each
other and snuggle up next to each other.
At the end of your meal,
your waiter will invite you to settle
down on the cushions sprinkled in the
middle of the dinning room around a majestic
platter with plethoric fruit and flowers.
You will be able to accompany
your timeless ecstasy with a coffee, black
or herbal tea, champagne and chocolate
truffles.
|
|

|
|
Under the opulent gilding of one of the
wings of the dinning room, the red curtain
through which your waiter will have appeared
and disappeared will be opened, thus providing
you with an amazing view of an unexpected
corridor glistening with beauty. This
will be the signal for the final surprise.
From this very moment on, you'll be the
masters of the palace. The only ones...
|
|

|
|
When you feel that the time is right,
you'll be able to take your partner by
the hand and head off down the majestic
passage like a prince and princess.
At the end of the corridor
you'll push open a heavy wooden door and
find yourselves in the heart of a divine
room blotted in white.
You'll then notice a
ballet of sparkling lights coming from
the mysterious opening on your left.
|
|

|
|
You'll discover a perfumed shower room,
softly lit by candles and covered in rose
petals and will immediately be bewitched
by its amazing charm. You'll be able to
immerge yourselves in the romantic flower
covered Jacuzzi for an infinitely tender
moment. A bottle of champagne and two
soft, perfumed towels will be placed at
your disposal.
If you so desire, you'll
be able to penetrate the silver door opposite
the shower room which leads to a ravishing
bedroom entirely decorated in white and
silver. You'll be able to rest in the
room until dawn.
|
In the morning your vehicle will tenderly
be waiting to escort you to the door
of what is known as "Reality". Your
partner's head will be resting on your
shoulder and your lips touching his/her
skin as you'll drift off on a dream
inspired by the pleasure and romantic
souvenirs which will fill your heart.
You'll have just passed the most wonderfully
romantic night of your life.
