For AF, first has a separate room off the main lounge at IAD (sort of like LH has, but more private). Neither is over-the-top like in CDG or LHR (which are only for departures, not arrivals).

By the way, when I fly AF Affaires TATL, I often get a buy-up offer email or at check-in to first for about $1K.
