Emily In Paris heartthrob Lucien Laviscount has revealed his perfect date would be to jet off to Paris and woo a potential lover with a sunset walk along the Seine.
The actor, 32, plays Lily Collins' British love interest Alfie in the Netflix series - which is set to return this week for a 'heartbreaking' fourth instalment.
Heartthrob Lucien has now detailed his very own perfect date location - and it is very on brand.
Asked where he would whisk someone away to, Lucien told Cosmopolitan UK: 'Paris, no question. The ideal weekend would be taking the train to Gare du Nord, leaving your things in the hotel and then hitting the streets.
'There's a cafe called Café Charlot in Le Marais, which is beautiful. Take a walk down to the [River] Seine to watch the sunset, and the Eiffel Tower's lights coming on. If you haven't fallen in love by then, they're just not meant for you.'

Lucien, who joined the Netflix show for series two, also revealed in the interview that he is not in the Emily In Paris group chat.
He added: 'If there is one, I'm not in it! No, I think there is one, but no one's really on it that much. If we're going to hang out one night, we all jump in and make a plan.
'And then no one will hear from anyone for a while. And then we'll jump in again and say, 'Where are we all going for dinner?'
It comes after Lucien revealed he was originally only meant to be in two episodes of the hit Netflix series.
Speaking to hosts Jordan North, Chris Stark and Kemi Rodgers on Tuesday's Capital Breakfast, Lucien gave an insight into what fans can expect.
Jordan asked: 'Did you ever think that this show would be as big as it was, because everybody is talking about it? In the States as well, everybody loves it, don’t they?'
Lucien responded: 'I came on second season, so I kind of had an inkling, but then obviously you had these shows that kind of hit through COVID, and everyone just binging at home.'
He added: 'So it was a little bit of a nerve-wracking kind of entrance on to the show. I was only supposed to do two episodes.
'I remember it was supposed to be my last day, I got this little round of applause, and then Darren Star, the creator, comes in and says, "Lucien, you’re not leaving Paris." And I’m like, "What have I done wrong?" I thought I was going to get arrested or something.

'And he went, "No, we’re going to keep you around a little bit." But yeah, the reach is just crazy.'
'If it was always meant to be just two episodes, what do you think you did that made them really want to kind of go more into this character?' Chris questioned.
'I have no idea!' the actor continued. 'I’ve just got to thank the acting Gods that are out there somewhere in the ether.'
'I guess just working with Lily as well, I think maybe we just had a good kind of relationship on set, and they wanted to keep me around.'
The third series ended on a chaotic cliffhanger when Emily's romance with Alfie came to an abrupt end at Gabriel and Camille's wedding, when Camille realised her husband-to-be had hidden feelings for Emily.
Asking what will happen next, Kemi said: 'In the trailer, we’ve seen that maybe you’re kind of working out where you stand with each other, what’s going on?'
Lucien responded: 'Gosh, I’d say that coming off the back of season three, it definitely ends on, I’d say, a cliffhanger as to what’s going to happen next.
'It’s a little bit chaotic, it’s a little bit of a rollercoaster, first half of the season, for Alfie figuring out what’s what… A little bit heartbreaking. Yeah, a little bit heartbreaking, to be honest.'
The Emily In Paris season four trailer lifts the lid on Lily's character Emily's love triangle with Alfie and Gabriel when it was released last month.
Part 1 of the hit Netflix series, which airs August 15, will see Emily attempt to steer clear from her double romances and focus on herself.

With best friend Mindy Chen (Ashley Park) urging 'no relationship is perfect' as Emily asks for advice, she quickly finds herself running back to the love triangle to find her one.
In a predicament, Emily says: 'I really thought that I could move on from them but they both means so much for different reasons.'
Mindy says: 'Don't over think it'.
In her work life, Emily once again clashes with her boss Sylvie Grateau (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu) when her blogging her love life clashes with her work in the office.
The first five shows will be available to watch on August 15 with viewers having to wait almost an entire month for the second instalment on September 12.
