When Emily Cooper (Lily Collins) arrived in Paris for her brand new marketing job, she fell in love with the city. But on Netflix's new romantic comedy series 'Emily in Paris', it doesn't take long for the city - or rather its men - to fall in love with Emily.

Her peppy, enthusiastic and ever-so-positive attitude attracts men like flies. Plus there is also Collins' beautiful face to go with that. And so, barely months into the new city, Emily is the belle of the ball. From the arrogant, snobbish professor she meets outside a cafe to the mistaken identity of Camille's brother, handsome men are all around Emily vying for her attention. But who should she pick?

Mathieu

Charles Martins as Mathieu (Netflix)

Emily meets Mathieu (Charles Martins) as a result of work and the man is immediately smitten by her. Unlike Antoine (William Abadie), he doesn't have very forward methods of expressing his interest. And so also impresses Emily. After the project they are working on sees its successful end, Mathieu proposes they go away for the weekend to get to know each other. He's calm and composed and unlike most of the other men that have crossed her way in this new country, Mathieu is unassuming and endearing. And so Emily agrees to get away with. But this will surely bring its own set of complications. Particularly others who might have her attention.

Gabriel 

Lucas Bravo as Gabriel (Netflix)

Played by Lucas Bravo, Gabriel is Emily's downstairs neighbour who immediately takes an interest to her. He is the first man she takes a liking to in France and becomes way more interested in him that she would have otherwise guessed. Their flirting takes a new level when she discovers that he has a girlfriend - shortly after kissing him. It doesn't help either that Camille (Camille Razat) actually turns out to be good friends with her. Now Gabriel becomes the forbidden fruit and we all know how that intensifies situations.

Over the course of the show, the hot, promising French chef and Emily become friends, eventually getting closer and till finally expressing their feelings for each other (which are very romantic in nature). At the end of the show, Emily must decide if she is keen on Gabriel or not. Assuming what would be his last night in Paris, they spend the night together. But the next day, things change and now the onus is on her.

All episodes of 'Emily in Paris' are currently streaming on Netflix.
