Poison D’Amour, a bite of love in Lisbon
Passion and surprises are essential to me. That’s what motivates me and gives me pleasure, makes me feel alive and unique. Fortunately, I have the opportunity to be surprised several times again and again falling in love with numerous experiences, objects, places, people… And that’s exactly what happened to me in one of the afternoons during my last stay in Lisbon.

In the midst of busy streets and shop windows in Príncipe Real, I found a space that awakened in me those sublime feelings of us women: seduction, passion, desire, addiction and awe. I went inside wanting to taste the flavor of a nice Parisian croissant with a touch of sweet blueberries. The doors opened and voilá … I travelled to Paris, the city of love and small pleasures.

Poison D’Amour is the new coffee that awakens all these emotions we feel when we walk around the city of the Eiffel Tower. With a decor based on traits of the city and the mysterious figure of Marie Antoinette, supreme point of opulence and seduction … One just instantly becomes powerful and ladies of no one but ourselves.

Not only are the aphrodisiacs flavors what move us but also the ambience and music of this  Parisian treasure. I may not be a piece of art from the Louvre but there I am, within the embodiment of love and passion, femininity…. pleasure. I travelled to Paris without leaving Lisbon.
With love, Janet Morais.
