The idea to open the Agency came to Nicolas almost 10 years ago. Then he used to work as an engineer for the Formula 1 Company. But the world of feelings appeared to be stronger than the world of technology, and after several years of studies and analyses Nicholas opened the world's first specialized agency for lovers. And that was not a mistake - among the 3 million couples that annually come to Paris for a romantic purpose, there are is a nice lot of his clients.

"When I was a teenager I was lucky to live four years in Venice. Every day I saw couples kissing in a gondola. I've always dreamed of doing exciting things for women! This desire has transferred from my private life into business. Today I am proud to say that I can give a man an opportunity to impress his beloved in the most incredible way!

According to statistics, 80% of women were disappointed with how they were proposed. I am helping to improve the situation! I love my business and I am happy that people fly thousands of miles to express their feelings in Paris. And with a great pleasure I help them to propose like in Hollywood movies" - Nicholas said.

Often among Nicolas’ clients there are stars and politicians. In this case, the scenario is to be explained in advance to their security guards.

"I do it most carefully, if the “Knightly Saga” scenario (9990 EUR) has been ordered, when the lovers get into a real medieval movie. I don't want the security guard to shoot my brave knights!" - laughs Nicolas.

Talking about customers’ nationalities, he notes that his services are popular both among Europeans and Americans. But some of the most generous customers, of course, are from Russia. The Russians often choose romantic packages priced 10,000 Euros and more.

Despite his romantic business, Nicholas is not married yet.

"When I finally decide to get married, for my proposal I’ll definitely choose the scenario “Say I love you while showered by 1,000 roses” (5490 Euros!). Just imagine: you are on a VIP dinner-cruise along the Seine River on a private yacht, and suddenly the boat stops at beautiful Pont des Arts, the famous bridge where there are padlocks everywhere. A few roses fall from the Pont des Arts, and in a few minutes, 1,000 red roses fully cover the yacht! The main thing for the man is not to miss the moment and timely fall on one knee! Sure, there is no woman who can resist such a proposal of marriage!" - laughs Nicolas.

  • My spring started from a trip. Traveling is my main source of inspiration. I met sunny March in Prague: the city of red-tiled roofs, narrow streets, old bridges, castles and magical aura.

  • Amazing, energizing and super-modern – that is Dubai. There is only one reason to come here – to enjoy life to its fullest. From super luxurious hotels to posh night clubs – this city will impress you. As it impressed me.

  • The climate on Tenerife is close to ideal, with temperatures between 18 to 25 degrees all year round, even in February when we explored it. We decided to start with the capital, Santa Cruz, and we didn’t regret it. Most tourists skip it, as there aren't any beautiful beaches or famous tourist attractions. The weather in Santa Cruz is chillier than on other parts of the island, especially during the wintertime, but it's still very warm

  • A long-short life called ‘summer’ has started! The air is full with warmth, the city is storming with bright colors and at last people have begun smiling without any special reason. Summer is the most suitable season to throw out rules imposed by somebody, to stop analyzing all ‘pro’s and ‘contra’s. It is time to create and misbehave, to let yourself be what you want to be!
