Transiting CDG for the first time last weekend, I was ready for a connfrontation with the lounge dragons. Much to my suprise, all the agent did was note the ST Eliteplus on my boarding pass and let me in.

The 2E lounge at CDG is now one of my favorites. I'm not a wine drinker, but just had to sample most of the selections. Also, there are no shower dragons either - just go in and use it if it's open and has been cleaned.
