by the Lluís Domènech i Fontaner (1850-1923) architect, historian, humanist and Catalan politician, typographic designer and book binding and illustrator.
Modernism in all its breadth, has stolen my heart for a long time, I don't think I can choose a building, because I can't rule out any, but I always liked to start with the Palau de la Música Catalana.
There was once, as a perfumer the muses created by Eusebi Arnau and Mario Marigliano, with their forms, colors and movements, inspired her fragrance, to me, so much that that obsessed me, until I finished it.
I placed the perfume at the inauguration of the Palace that took place on 9 of February of 1908, and I named Les Muses del Palau ( Palace Muses) . the perfume adapts its vegetal warmth to the shapes of this wonderful building., preceding a shameless voluptuousness, that has remained at that time and the materials by their own nature, gave us the harmonized color with the set of eternal muses, allegory of universal music.
A small edition was presented, in solidified format.
