I saw no toys, no elaborate dress-up, no conversation. On the "bed," rather than lying down, mostly grouped in kneeling or reclining twos or threes, reaching over to neighbors, spontaneously moving on to another pleasure based on mutual desire and your type of sex trip. The cozy back rooms host a moaning, panting, shifting organic consensual adult orgy with couples meandering around doing whatever makes them feel good. I have agreed to accompany him here because I am secretly, hopelessly, and pointlessly in love with him. After drowning a suitably pacifying amount of bubbles, he takes me on a tour. The married Italian seducing me is a habitué. Photo courtesy Les Chandelles Facebook page. My reply was, Are you kidding? Judging by the bar and sexy moves on the dance floor - though I suppose this depends on the evening - Chandelles could have been a traditional club for the over-40 crowd. My date comments that it is a good DJ, reputed, as the food, to be above passably good. We sucked ours down observing couples, some on the dance floor, while adjusting to the place and matter at hand. Entry fee depends on the evening and whether you dine or not and may include a rather expensive flute of champagne. Kiddy candies and wonderfully ripe fruit are laid out on a table as you head to the bar. The red-cushioned interior design aims for a tasteful, updated wink at boudoir. Want more stories like this?

Apparently he judges my silk kimono and Sergio Rossi stilettos to be in exceptionally good taste. Whereupon the attendant admonishes that though he is very chilled out, his colleague would have thrown us out because prostitutes are not allowed. My companion shared his and deferred to me to share my own invented one. When the attendant clarified that phone confiscation guarded against photos, I had to stifle a laugh. They want to keep it select.Īt the coat check, you surrender your coat, purse, wallet, telephone. (This is a discreet version of the red velvet rope where your entry or not is decided upon via video camera.) Not a private club, Chandelles is open to the public, but many are turned away, even if respecting the dress code, as happens at other clubs like Le Baron.

The establishment caters to essentially straight patrons performing traditional sex roles, with women's dress code requiring a skirt and heels.Īn unmarked street entrance leads to a claustrophobic foyer. A club libertin, as the club proclaims itself, is indeed the more accurate description.

On the other hand, to call it a club échangiste, as it is popularly known (the toniest one of its kind), is a misnomer. The theory holds water, because love at first site is unlikely chez Les Chandelles.

Versus an adulterous adventure, which is an absolutely acceptable, even encouraged, Frenchy sport for both goose and gander, a club échangiste is in theory, by comparison, shared titillation that lowers the risk of your husband falling in love with another woman. Most chic Parisiennes eventually land up there in an attempt to stave off inevitable deathly couple-sex doldrums.

PARIS – Most women I know won’t own up to having been there. (Anaïs Nin, here's looking at you, kid.) We sent our intrepid reporter to one of the city's best sex clubs - okay, someone took her there on a date - to see what happens behind the ropes at Les Chandelles, the high-class "club libertin" allegedly frequented by Dominique Strauss-Kahn, that notable French lothario. Paris may be the most romantic city on Earth, but it also has a proud tradition of highbrow kink and naughty pursuits.
