The Ritz-Carlton Spa, Los Angeles and Ladurée, the popular patisserie known for its delicious macarons, recently teamed up to create a menu of custom spa experiences inspired by the brand’s most coveted spring flavors, such as raspberry, hibiscus, black tea, citrus, and rose. The flavor notes are infused into the treatments, taking guests on a journey that awakens the senses through smell, touch, and taste.
No treatment would be complete without a taste of the famed macarons, which is why upon arrival, guests are treated to a macaron that correlates to their treatment’s flavor notes. In the spa’s sanctuary, they’re invited to enjoy the treat along with a cup of Ladurée herbal tea. After their treatment, they’re gifted with a box of macarons and a signature Los Angeles Ladurée candle, which is a part of their limited-edition Les Capitales collection, to enjoy at home.
Available through June 30, the new menu includes:
Printemps Pedicure ($245, 50 minutes)
Inspired by the Hibiscus macaron, this aromatic foot treatment features tangy scents layered with notes of floral, rose, and grapefruit. The service also includes a rose and grapefruit-infused sugar scrub, application of rose oil, nailcare, and polish.
Berry Bisou ($320, 50 minutes)
Enhanced with the light and fruity perfume of the classic Framboise macaron, this facial incorporates a blend of raspberry, blueberry, and blackberry essences to refine the complexion and improve overall appearance. It also involves a gentle exfoliation and pore-refining mask.
Haute Honey Body Treatment ($545, 1 hour 40 minutes)
Ladurée’s signature Marie-Antoinette macaron inspires this decadent body treatment with a blend of black tea with hints of rose petals, citrus, and honey. It leaves the skin soft and glowing. The treatment also features a lavender and sea-salt exfoliation, honey-glaze body wrap, and a massage with grapefruit infused oil.
Let Them Eat Cake Package ($5,000+)
This over-the-top experience features all-of-the-above treatments; a one-night stay in an Executive Suite at The Ritz-Carlton, Los Angeles; bath butler service to draw a luxe soaking bath featuring fragrant oils, a hydrating shimmer lotion, and an eye mask and other essentials; and an official Ladurée factory tour and live pastry class to be enjoyed with friends and family (minimum four guests). During the VIP experience, guests will get a behind-the-scenes look at how the macarons are made and an opportunity to decorate them. Each guest will leave with a box of Ladurée pastries and a cookbook so they can recreate the recipes at home.
