Character
Antoine Lambert
Antoine Lambert in Emily in Paris (2020), played by William Abadie.
Antoine Lambert is the wealthy, impeccably tailored owner of Maison Lavaux, a luxury perfume house and one of Savoir's most important clients. He is charming, flirtatious, and used to getting his way, treating business and romance with the same confident ease. His interest in the agency has as much to do with Sylvie as with marketing.
Abadie plays him as smooth rather than slimy, a man whose flattery is genuine enough to be disarming even when you know it's a tactic. The role works because it never tips into caricature of the rich Frenchman; there's real warmth under the polish, which makes his scenes with Sylvie feel like adults sparring rather than a plot device.
