You need to be aware that unless a mouthpiece made in France is destined for the US market, it is likely to be tuned to 442 rather than 440. Vandoren at 56 rue Lepic is a good place to visit, but they only have their own make. There are some good music stores around the rue de Rome, next to the Saint Lazare station, included Musique et Art and Feeling, which have other makes as well. For reasons, I've never been able to fathom, France does not have the same plethora of mouthpiece makers as the United States. Vandoren is definitely the most popular here.
