Rose de Mai is a unique and rare rose with strong healing power which blooms just once a year during the month of May. How precious?
 
This very unique flower is one of the major ingredients of beauty brand Chantecaille’s Rose de Mai range and has inspired InterContinental Hong Kong Executive Chef Maxime Luvara and Executive Pastry Chef Christian Gonthier who have created a selection of afternoon treats with French, floral and refreshing springtime ingredients and touches. 
 
Hong Kong Madame fav: the Rose & Raspberry Macaron 
 
Available from May 1stto June 30 
HKD 688 for two 
Every guest ordering the Afternoon tea set will also be treated to a Chantecaille Rose de Mai Signature Skincare Discovery Kit (valued at HKD 1,140) featuring miniature products and gift certificate

DEBAYN  redefines men’s swim trunks 

5 little things we love – May
Disappointed of never finding the perfect swim short he was looking for, something he could “wear all day while sailing, swimming, as well as in bars and restaurants afterwards”, Nicolas Jeanjean decided to design it. 
 
DEBAYN’s swim shorts are made with an innovative double skin concept and quick-drying 4-way stretch polyamide fabrics but also feature a very French cut and fit making it easy to wear after a long day on the beach. 
 
 
Men’s swim shorts are USD 95, bermudas are USD 97

Amazing' Graze   powers us up with healthy snacks 

5 little things we love – May
Are you the snacking type? I definitely am! 
But snacking doesn’t have to be an unhealthy habit! The reason why I snack is because I often feel the need for a little power kick in the middle of my busy days and I am therefore always on the look for yummy yet healthy snacks. My latest discovery? Amazin’Graze, offering freshly baked snacks free from refined sugar and salt and also free from artificial preservatives, flavoring or coloring. Their granolas and nuts are just so yum! 
 
Hong Kong Madame’s fav: the Coconut Kaya Granola (HKD 60) with big crunches of rolled oats, buttery pecans, earthy almonds and silky-smooth golden Coconut Kaya … god that things is highly addictive! 
 
Available online  and at different resellers around town
