Claus Porto

Bairro Alto, Chiado & Cais do Sodré


The amazing flagship store is in Porto, but Claus Porto, one of Portugal's most iconic brands, has its own evocative retro Lisbon boutique here as well. The painstakingly vintage art-deco and belle-époque-style packaging for the luxury soaps, lotions, room diffusers and notebooks are all original – resurrected from the brand's design archives.

For men, spend more than €50 and there's a free shave in the deal, taken in the shaving salon below.
