Vesper transforms your Wednesdays into mystical rituals… cocktails included
What if the real trend was no longer rooftops or brunches, but… menus? In Paris, clairvoyance is making a comeback. But forget crystal balls and dusty drapes: here, the experience is chic, connected and wildly desirable. It’s happening at Vesper.
Clairvoyance, the new hype at Paris parties
Long confined to the “old school” imagination, fortune-telling is now establishing itself as a contemporary urban practice, where tarot and astrology flirt with design, food and signature cocktails. The phenomenon is particularly popular with the 30-something generation in Paris: a generation in search of meaning, vibrancy and moments that are both intimate and stylish.
It’s in this vein that Vesper, an address in the 7th arrondissement, shakes things up every Wednesday evening. Between two mouthfuls of prawn tempura and a tangy ceviche, we sit down to a meal… and face professional clairvoyant Fiona Mattei, for a relaxed reading of the future.
Vesper and its subdued decor for hushed revelations
From 6.30pm, Vesper’s dressing room takes on the air of a mystical salon. Soft lighting, velvet banquettes, a hushed ambience… everything is designed to reconnect you to yourself, without sacrificing the pleasure of the senses. Fiona reads the cards, captures the energies, interprets the symbols – while glasses are emptied, dishes are served and confidences are exchanged between sips.
Far from cliché, here fortune-telling is a pretext for joyful introspection, a parenthesis in the Parisian rhythm, between benevolence and aesthetics.
An address that combines style, intuition and the art of cocktails
With its half-French, half-Nipponese aesthetic, Vesper succeeds where many fail: making fortune-telling accessible, sophisticated and profoundly urban. We come for the tarot, we return for the colorful plates and brilliantly shaken cocktails.
