HELP!! BNP Paribas IB Internship (Singapore) VS Ohana IB Internship (Paris)

Hi guys,
I got 2 offers and I don't know which one I should accept, here's my indecision:
I am from Paris, about to finish an internship in Audit in EY in few weeks, and I have to begin the next one in one month.
First offer is from this Boutique IB Ohana here in paris, not so big and specialized in Luxury.
The other one is in the IB D of BNP in Singapore.
I don't know anyone from these companies, and I dunno honestly which I should take, BNP for brand name (but no core business of the company/and is in Singapore...)? Or Ohana (here in Paris, good deal flow, but a boutique)?
I have already worked in a well known multinational firms of luxury in the past, so on my Cv there are already renowned brand names (dunno if I it's always better to have the strongest brand name).
Anyone who worked there?
Let me know what u think!
Thanks

Did you go to an Grande Ecole? I am assuming you are on your gap year for internships back to back (if I am wrong and you have already graduated, this analysis changes). If you went to a Grande Ecole, you can really do either one. If you have done Luxury in the past, you can spin it as a chance to get more towards finance, wanted to get on deals etc. BNP is the answer if you didn't go to a Grand Ecole (HEC/ENA/Poly?Science Po) because you will have another crack at OCR with BNP at these schools for IBD and you can spin it as I suggested above.
