Bring Parisian elegance to your Filipino Christmas — Here’s how
MANILA, Philippines — After the colorful and noisy Christmas parties, we may want to hush the festivities and turn the most important holiday into something elegant, chic and romantic.
Anything French is alluring and has captured the hearts of many Filipinos, thanks to pop culture favorites like Emily in Paris, which features endless Parisian fashion, romance and picturesque streets.
We’ve swooned over iconic French-themed cafés and anything set in the City of Love, so why not, for a change of atmosphere, bring a touch of Parisian elegance into your own home this holiday season?
From chic décor and mouthwatering festive recipes to thoughtful gifts featuring luxurious scents, here’s how to create a sophisticated, French-inspired Noël right in your Filipino home.
1. Recreate a French aesthetic
Use soft, romantic colors like blush pink, cream and gold, as if you were celebrating your Sweet Sixteen again. Add fairy lights, candles and floral centerpieces for a chic Christmas spread. Display elegant tableware with a French touch—think lace tablecloths and vintage cutlery.
2. Make it moody with movies
As you wait for midnight, create a French-inspired playlist or binge-watch French films filled with Parisian charm. Some great options include Amélie, Midnight in Paris and the heartwarming A Very Long Engagement.
3. From patisserie to charcuterie
Bake (or simply order) classic French pastries like croissants, éclairs, or madeleines, and prepare a charcuterie board with cheeses, cold cuts, nuts and fruits.
At Noche Buena, toast with sparkling wine or a festive punch inspired by French aperitifs. For non-alcoholic options, serve sparkling lemonade or an aromatic herbal tea with a hint of lavender.
4. Curate elegant gifts
Choose gifts with a personal and luxurious feel, such as scented candles or artisanal soaps.
Complete the set with Enchanteur's French-inspired fragrances for a dash of everyday elegance and pampering. Wrap them in rustic-chic paper with soft pastel ribbons for a beautifully curated present.
5. Indulge in a Parisian self-care ritual
Indulge in a relaxing holiday routine with Enchanteur’s fragranced body lotion for a spa-like experience at home, complete with scented baths and skincare treats. Finish with Enchanteur’s fine-textured talcum for silky-smooth skin.
End the day with a cozy, candle-lit moment and a good book.
