Etiquette: It's generally acceptable to initiate the greeting with a bise if the other person does. However, when meeting someone for the first time, particularly in a professional context, it's usually best to wait for the other person to initiate or to offer a handshake instead. Avoid an actual lip-on-lip contact; it is more of a cheek-to-cheek brushing. Bisous Etiquette
When to Avoid: It's best to avoid giving bisous to people you don't know well, especially in formal settings or with people significantly older than you unless they initiate. During illness, it's polite to offer an alternative greeting to avoid spreading germs. When to Avoid Giving Bisous
