Haute Custom Beauty
The spa Haute Custom Beaury Institute, located in the Casa Amatller (Passeig de Gràcia, 41, 1-2 A), has conceived with its aroma a candle baptized with the name of La Barcelonesa. Handmade with essences of fresh herbs and dried leaves from the forests of Catalonia, it has a high concentration of perfume (12%). The metal container, featuring emblematic buildings of the city, has been made by a local illustrator. When the wick is lit, a light seems to light in the windows of all of them.
