There is a stunning room at the back of Casa Cavia, Guadalupe’s second restaurant, which serves as a laboratory for scents. This artisanal perfumery, Fuegia 1883, crafts aromas based on poetic images of Latin America. There are scents inspired by local writers, philosophers and architects; others based on local flora and even one imagining the scent of a small, wooden cabin used by Charles Darwin during his travels through Patagonia.
Within Casa Cavia (commissioned in the 1920’s as a surprise, marital gift) there is also one of the city’s best cocktail bars, a flower shop, a publishing house, a library and, of course, a fantastic restaurant with an evolving menu and a celebrated pastry chef (the medialunas alone are worth the trip).
