At Palazzo Navona, your stay is more than just a getaway: it's an olfactory journey that celebrates Italian art, culture and beauty just steps from Piazza Navona. We are proud to introduce the exclusive Pantheon Parfum amenities line, a Made-in-Italy fragrance collection designed to elevate your experience in the heart of Rome. Enriched with captivating notes of mango, iris, saffron and bergamot, this luxurious scent welcomes you into a world where history and elegance come together.
Pantheon Parfum is inspired by the story of Raphael Sanzio, one of the greatest exponents of the Italian Renaissance, and his forbidden love for Margherita Liuti, daughter of a Trastevere baker. It was Raphael himself who was called upon by Pope Leo X to immortalize Annone, his albino elephant, donated by King Manuel I of Portugal in the 16th century.
Annone became a celebrity for the time, as well as a symbol of divine power and papal prestige, over the people of Rome. Impressed by the rare beauty and majesty of the elephant, Raphael made a portrait of it, and now its essence is encapsulated in the fragrance of our courtesy line, which evokes the elegance and majesty of the Renaissance.
In addition to the Annone amenities line, Palazzo Navona offers a unique cultural experience: the “Colors and Scents on Raffaello Sanzio’s Path” tour. Enter the world of Raphael and explore the places where his genius was expressed, where art and love, inextricably intertwined, gave birth to unique masterpieces. You will visit Villa Farnesina in the heart of Trastevere, where Margherita lived and where a sweet stop is inevitable to taste the traditional mostaccioli. You'll continue on board the golf cart and proceed to the Pantheon, where Raphael rests. As you continue to discover the hidden treasures, you’ll go to the Basilica of St. Augustine and then reach the Chigi Chapel in the Church of Santa Maria del Popolo. The tour ends with the Parfum Experience, a unique olfactory journey in the Pantheon maison de parfum, who signs our amenities line, to experience the olfactory world of Raphael through the fragrances dedicated to Margherita in Trastevere, their love, and Eternal Rome.
Immerse yourself in the art, history and beauty of Renaissance Rome. Discover the Annone by Pantheon Parfum amenities line and our exclusive Raphael Tour. Let Annone's signature fragrance envelop your senses, creating a unique and memorable experience during your stay at our boutique hotel in Rome.
