Sir Edgar Fraser (Alec Guinness), an aging British royal, leaves the luxury of his Scottish mansion to take his sheltered son John (Vernon Gray) on a brief trip to Paris to learn about love. The Frasers visit a family friend and meet Lisette Marconnet (Odile Versois), a young Parisian beauty, and Sylvia Gilbert (Elina Labourdette), an aging French widow. In a surprising turn of events, the younger Fraser falls for Sylvia, while his graying father pursues the nubile Lisette.
