The Spa at Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco launches new body care line by Officine Profumo Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella
The Iconic Tuscan Resort Introduces New Products and Bespoke Treatments in Partnership With Renowned Florentine Apothecary
Santa Maria Novella’s history dates to 1221 when Dominican friars, arriving in Florence, built a monastery just outside the city’s gates and began to study and experiment the properties of the local herbs. Through this research, medicines, balms and ointments were originally created to keep the friars and other member of the community in good health. Through the years, the fame of the products developed by the friars spread to Russia, China and India which eventually led the pharmacy to open to the public. These same raw martials are used to this day and apothecary father’s artisanal procedures are still followed, yet Santa Maria Novella avails itself on the use of state-of-the art equipment and modern technology.

About Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco
Framed by the rolling hills of UNESCO World Heritage Site Val d’Orcia, Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco is an immersion into the Tuscan way of life. Located in a 12th-century borgo, lovingly restored by the Ferragamo family, this is an escape that welcomes guests home. The estate is dotted with 53 suites and villas; once medieval farmhouses, now intimate retreats curated with carefully sourced antiques and handpicked pieces from across Italy. With a two-Michelin-starred restaurant, traditional trattoria and historic winery, farm-to-table fare becomes a daily ritual here. A stay is both exploration and restoration: strolls down tree-lined trails and through ancient ruins, rounds of golf at a private course, rejuvenating swims and botanical treatments at the spa.
