‘Fanfarone Italiano is about enjoying life to the fullest, in a frivolous and rebellious way. Its coffee olfactive expression combines a high level of intensity and mystery. Fanfarone is like a diva, daring, sparkling and bewitching’.
Catherine Laskine-Balandina
Olfactive memories of Italian trips triggered her inspiration. An exquisite tasting experience of an expresso with a sprinkle of bitter cocoa powder. Yet, her idea was to create something different, to invent her own coffee signature. Fanfarone is an intoxicating and mesmerizing scent, not simple to grasp and restrain. It is not a ‘caffè corretto’, not a marocchino, not a macchiato, it has no milk, no cream. It does have a splash of liquor, a delicious combination of cognac and walnut alcohol. Its sweetness is a soft one, with a delicate touch of honey, vanilla, tonka bean, and chocolate. A
juicy, ripe orange adds a sparkling freshness to the composition. An original, oriental ambery gourmand created once again by Karine Dubreuil, the talented perfumer from Grasse behind all State of Mind perfumes.
