I would like to know which font this is. I thought it was Parisine Plus from Porchez Typofonderie, but it is not. Can you help please?

I think it may be a customization of Parisine Plus. The 'a' for example is an alternate glyph (just with a shorter tail). The 'f' may just have had part of the crossbar clipped off. I can see that the G and R are also not straight copies, but I believe the modification might be easy enough for someone with some skill at manipulating font outlines.
I kept trying to see if there was a unicase version of Parisine Plus, because that would probably look like this, but even the PTF web site doesn't show one.

@botinkin I can confirm that its not Parisine Plus as basis for this piece of lettering. Basic forms as n are not Parisine. But indeed, there is some effects a bit on the same style. Perhaps Myriad as starting point?

Thanks Jean, for your comments. You would know best if it started with your font.
