50 Hours in Paris
It all started with a summer in Paris. I kept coming back to the art capital. Then in 2023, I launched my perfume line at a store by the Louvre. There’s so much to be said about Paris.

Sunset: Sunset Cruise on River Seine
Dinner: Georges at Pompidou @legeorgesofficiel. This rooftop french restaurant at Centre Pompidou is one of my favorites and I revisit it every time in Paris. The sleek and playful interior decor is great for large group dining.
