1. The Astro Workshop: to discover what 2022 has in store for you

2. The exclusive podcast: to keep the audio memory of a loved one
Are you a fan of podcasts and love listening to family anecdotes? Combine these two passions by having Radio Trombines create a sound portrait of one (or more) of your loved ones. The concept
It’s simple. Margaux, the creator of Radio Trombines, records the person you want to keep as a testimonial (face-to-face or remotely). She then creates the montage, the editing, and the mixing to provide you with a digital or CD-recorded audio portrait. Grandparents’ stories, a child’s message, or simply the sound of a voice are all audio memories of loved ones that can be given or received and listened to over and over again.
The recordings last from 5 minutes to 40 minutes. In terms of budget, you should expect to spend between 90 euros for a short portrait (excluding travel costs, written transcription of the portrait, and support materials.)
3. Personalized shoes: for impeccable style
Attention to shoe addicts! Boots, sneakers, ballerinas… The brand Un si beau pas offers completely customizable shoes, starting at 135 euros. You just have to choose the shape and material from a dozen leather options. The heel height is also customizable and the sizes range from 35 to 42. On request, we’ll tell you everything! All of them are handcrafted in France (in Romans-sur-Isère) and produced on demand, so there’s no wasted material or unsold stock. A commitment: 100% eco-responsible! Delivery takes an average of 3 weeks.
4. The adoption of a truffle oak: the perfect gift for a gourmet
Are you completely obsessed with the so-called black gold? Join the Aléna club, specialized in exceptional truffles, and become the proud sponsor of a truffle tree in the Dordogne for 15 years. How does it work? From the first year and for five years, you receive 50 g of fresh truffles as well as boxes of truffles. And once the truffle farmer starts producing, you get the entire harvest from your truffle tree. The investment is 750 euros, but it’s worth it, word from a truffle lover!
5. The creation of perfume: for a bespoke scent
Who hasn’t dreamed of creating their own perfume? With the help of a perfumer, you’ll be able to play the alchemist for 3 hours and create your own bespoke olfactory. You’ll then leave with a 30 ml bottle of your creation. What we loved: the high-level experience offered by the independent house Cinquième Sens. The Perfume Creation workshop costs from 140 € (260 € if you wish to complement the experience with an olfaktorium, a mini perfume organ). If you want to make a nice gift, it’s valid for 18 months.
The editorial team invites you to a unique experience: the Pop-Up VOICI! The program includes wellness workshops, fashion, makeup, and lifestyle tips to pamper yourself! And everything is free (Yes, yes!). Seats are limited, so sign up quickly!
