About La Musardine

Paris's only erotic bookstore and an independent publishing house, operating from the 11th arrondissement since 1995. La Musardine carries a curated selection of erotic fiction, comics, practical guides, essays, and films. Their best-known line is the Osez series — pocket-sized how-to guides covering sexuality that have been in print for decades. In 2023, La Musardine launched Prismes, a dedicated LGBTQ+ erotica collection publishing four titles per year across gay, lesbian, trans, and bi perspectives — filling a genuine gap in French-language publishing. Founded by Claude Bard after leaving Hachette, the shop became an employee-owned cooperative in 2021 when Bard retired. Open Tuesday through Saturday.
