“Don’t assume that a door marked Club Privé in one of Paris’s better neighbourhoods is reserved for members who want to discuss philosophy. Natives and tourists mix without a language barrier.”

The most famous club in the city is Les Chandelles (The Candles) – a haunt of rock stars, actors and politicians. Swingers dine on fillet steak or sea bass and neck champagne cocktails before meeting up in the playrooms for sex.

The joint offers valet parking and mobile phones stay in a locker.

Women must don evening wear and heels and blokes pants, a long-sleeved shirt and smart shoes.

Bills can exceed £250 per couple for drinks, food and entrance to the sex club.

Recently the grande dame of Les Chandelles, Valérie Hervo, left its illustrious visitors quaking in their designer shoes after writing a tell-all book about the club.

Known to her regulars as “Madame Valérie”, the glamorous owner describes the venue as a “universe of pleasures”.

“Sex is just the cherry on the cake. I get drunk just on the atmosphere,” she writes in Les Dessous des Chandelles (Inside Les Chandelles).

One visitor – rumoured to be Rolling Stones superstar Mick Jagger – was told to go and change his trainers before he was allowed in.

Jeans and trainers are “for chopping wood”, Valérie insisted.

She wrote: “Faced with this very old rule in France, even the singer of an illustrious British rock group had to give in: sheepishly, he left to change. No satisfaction.”

At the La Marquise Club, the doors are open from 10pm to 5am on a weekend.

The club also serves up a buffet of Gallic delicacies during its regular orgies.

One recent visitor said in a review: “Beautiful club in the heart of Paris. Superbly conducted by its two super gentle owners. They pamper us from the very moment we arrived making us feel like at home and offering drinks. A must to go place in Paris. Hope to meet you soon again. “
