Those who are lucky enough to spend their holidays in Greece – and there were particularly many of them last summer – know: the flora there is of infinite variety. The country of Socrates is indeed home to more than 6500 varieties of plants, including 1200 endemic species.
WILD ROSE APOTHECARY EDT, body lotion, shower gel – Korres
It was from this ecosystem that George Korres created the first homeopathic pharmacy in Athens in 1996, with his wife Léna, a chemical engineer. This then gave birth to the eponymous natural cosmetic care brand.
Korres works with plant hunters whose mission is to find the ideal region to grow each plant based on climate and soil fertility while protecting endangered species. It favors the use of cultivated plants or renewable parts of plants in order to select the active plant ingredients to integrate them into the formulas.
After a first left bank store opened ten years ago, near the Sorbonne, Korres has just opened a second address on rue Vieille-du-Temple. Welcome in le Marais.

THIS WAY THE BEAUTY
Alternative beauty in le Marais
Green beauty has taken up residence on our plate and in our bathroom. According to a Blissim study in 2022, the formula is true for six out of ten women. We are now sensitive to the issue of the environment and animal welfare.
The best tattoo parlors in Marais
Tattooing, an age-old practice, has long been the prerogative of convicts, dock workers, the underworld and sailors. Although it has become democratized, now affecting all profiles and concerning one in five French people, including 16% women compared to 10% men, it still remains taboo due to its definitive and transgressive nature.
The addictive fragrances of Perfumer H
“He who masters odors, masters the heart of humanity,” wrote Patrick Süskind in his famous historical novel Perfume. Perfumer Lyn Harris intends to control the heart of Paris by opening in le Marais its first store outside London, at 64, rue Vieille-du-Temple.
NOW ON LE MARAIS MOOD
The Marais Crossings 2024: surprises and emotions (from 13/15 to 09/XNUMX)
From September 13 to 15, 2024, Le Marais celebrates the 10th anniversary of its cultural festival “Les Traversées du Marais”. Under the theme of “Surprise”, this anniversary edition promises to shake up the senses and certainties of strollers, in a district where history rubs shoulders with the avant-garde.
Heritage Days 2024: the secrets of the Marais
Le Marais, an architectural showcase of historic Paris, is preparing to reveal its hidden treasures during the 2024 Heritage Days. This district, once a marshland that became a stronghold of the nobility in the XNUMXth century, is home to an exceptional density of private mansions and historic buildings, silent witnesses to the splendor of yesteryear.
Private cruise on the Seine: a perfect moment
Like the Olympic athletes at the opening ceremony, Le Marais Mood embarked on a cruise on the Seine. But for a private cruise, in a small group (six passengers), with champagne on tap. This is what Green River Cruises offers for 450 euros for a one and a half hour cruise.
