State of Mind Fanfarone Italiano is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Karine Dubreuil-Sereni. Fanfarone Italiano opens with Orange, Neroli, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Chocolate, Tonka Bean, Coffee, and Cashmeran, and dries down to a base of Cognac, Amber, Walnut, and Vanilla. State of Mind's Fanfarone Italiano carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a bit of an enigma. While some find it an utterly sophisticated coffee gourmand with a masculine lean, others detect an off-putting opening or a more feminine, nutty sweetness. Not a safe blind buy, but compelling if it hits right.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Fanfarone Italiano opens with a curious, slightly bitter green citrus, an initial burst of neroli and orange peel mingling with dark blackcurrant buds. Soon, the heart reveals a rich, complex gourmand accord of roasted coffee, warm chocolate, and creamy tonka bean, softened by the subtle caress of cashmeran. The dry down is a sophisticated blend of boozy cognac, earthy walnut, and smooth amber, underpinned by a comforting, not-too-sweet vanilla.
