California’s super swank Beverly Wilshire has teamed up with Spanish skincare line Natura Bissé (one of our EIC Susan’s faves!) to launch A Taste of Beauty, a new (and pricey) concept that combines spa treatments and fine dining.

The concept starts with a 90-minute head-to-toe spa experience, which includes a calming welcome inhalation of essential oils, a carboxitherapy treatment (a technique that uses CO2 to produce an explosion of oxygen to refresh the face), a chakra-balancing marine and mint infusion, black magic body scrub, cyro lavendar mask and a diamond experience lotion application.

The culinary experience – a private, seven-course meal prepared by the hotel’s renown executive chef Gilles Arzur – complements the spa treatments you received with dishes like the Marine & Mint Inspiration (scallops over mint jelly) and the Black Magic Croquette (sepia-ink flavored risotto croquette). Spa touches continue throughout the meal as you inhale essential oils paired with each of the dishes.  

At $1,500 per person, the experience is definitely a splurge. Would you do it?
