There’s an unofficial but perfectly mastered discipline in Paris: elegant snobbery. It’s a discipline that never claims to be its own, but which structures agendas, guides conversations and dictates addresses. In April, the Parisienne refined this art with almost surgical precision. Between culture, gastronomy and lifestyle, here are her 10 snobisms<\/a> of the moment – the ones she doesn’t comment on, but applies. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Testing (and validating) the new Bus Palladium<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

6 rue Pierre Fontaine, Paris 9<\/strong>The nocturnal snobbery of the Parisian woman is paradoxical: she frequents institutions when they are reborn, never when they dominate. The new Bus Palladium ticks this precise box, raw enough to remain credible, revisited enough to become desirable again. We’re off! <\/p>\n\n

Bruncher chic en terrasse at Magdalena<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

16 Place de la Madeleine, Paris 9<\/strong>Brunch is no longer a meal, it’s a Sunday social code. Magdalena <\/a><\/strong>embodies this perfectly Parisian version of worked simplicity: perfect setting (facing the Madeleine), elegant terrace, soft lighting, generous and gourmet plates, everything is pleasant and perfectly mastered. The place to be this summer! <\/p>\n\n

Ap\u00e9ritivo at H\u00f4tel de Sers<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

41 Avenue Pierre 1er de Serbie, 75008 Paris<\/strong>The snobbery of the Parisian woman nestles in those addresses she chooses with almost instinctive precision. The H\u00f4tel de Sers<\/a> is one of them. At Ap\u00e9ritivo time, the place unveils an elegant interlude with accents of Dolce Vita, between Italian specialties and the softness of a planted patio. A precious address, still preserved, perfect for chic and perfectly mastered afterworks. <\/p>\n\n

Admire the Marilyn Monroe exhibition at the Cin\u00e9math\u00e8que fran\u00e7aise<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

51 Rue de Bercy, 75012 Paris<\/strong>It’s fashionable not to “do exhibitions<\/a>“, but to choose the best ones. Marilyn Monroe at the Cin\u00e9math\u00e8que Fran\u00e7aise<\/strong> falls into exactly this category: an icon universal enough to be inescapable, but curatorial enough to remain selective. The Parisian snobbery<\/a> here consists in talking about the myth rather than the visit. <\/p>\n\n

Lunch on a confidential rooftop in the 16th arrondissement<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

At Canopy by Hilton Paris Eiffel Tower 16 Avenue d’Eylau, 75116 Paris<\/strong><\/strong>The Eylau Paris rooftop is now a must. At the Canopy by Hilton Paris Eiffel Tower, the Parisienne orchestrates her lunches with precision, choosing a view to match the season. Just a stone’s throw from the Trocadero, the place ticks all the boxes: light, perspective and precision. We highly recommend it (from April 20)! <\/p>\n\n

Dinner in a timeless setting: Les Salons du Prince <\/h2>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Shangri-La Paris<\/strong> 10 Avenue d’I\u00e9na, 75116 Paris<\/strong>There are diners, and there are executives. Les Salons du Prince<\/strong> belongs to the latter category. The snobbery here consists in considering the place as an event in itself, independently of the plate, in a very Parisian logic of silent staging. An experience to be lived. <\/p>\n\n

Treat yourself to the new fragrance by iconic designer Agn\u00e8s b. <\/h2>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

True snobbery never lies in the object, but in its rarity. The release of an Agn\u00e8s b. perfume<\/strong> is confidential enough to be noticed. It’s a very Parisian logic: get ahead of the crowd, spot what’s out there before anyone else, appropriate what still escapes the overly visible circuits. You don’t just wear it, you affirm, through it, an instinctive ability to unearth what others will discover later.Available exclusively at Marionnaud. <\/p>\n\n

Dive into the legend of the Titanic at La Villette<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

211 Avenue Jean Jaur\u00e8s, 75019 Paris<\/strong>Immersive culture<\/strong> has become the new discreet luxury. At La Villette, the Titanic <\/strong>is no longer a story: it’s an experience to be ticked off. The snobbery consists in not talking about the exhibition as a leisure activity, but as a necessary cultural passage. <\/p>\n\n

Prepare your summer mane at Mod’s Hair<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

248 Rue Saint-Honor\u00e9, 75001 Paris<\/strong>La Parisienne doesn’t change seasons, she anticipates them. At Mod’s Hair,<\/strong> balayage is not a transformation, but a strategic adjustment to the light to come. The snobbery<\/strong> lies in this ability to be already in summer while the calendar is still hesitating. <\/p>\n\n

Taste Cyril Lignac’s ice cream novelties<\/h2>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

2 rue de Chaillot, Paris 16e – 9 rue Bayen, Paris 17eGaleries Lafayette Le Gourmet – 35 boulevard Haussmann, Paris 9e<\/strong>Being among the first to give her opinion is one of the Parisienne’s most mastered snobberies. With Cyril Lignac<\/strong>, she has already adopted GLAC\u00c9<\/strong>, his new collection of ice creams and sorbets. Nearly twenty flavors, crafted by hand, to comment on before anyone else. The pleasure is twofold: to taste, of course, but above all to assert an enlightened point of view before the address becomes obvious. <\/p>\n\n

Snobberies never really end. They shift, refine and replace themselves. As for Paris, it continues to provide the right backdrops for those who know how to recognize them… <\/p>\n\n
