Thameen Fanfare The Britologne Collection. Comes with box dust bag and decorative pillow.

A Cologne Elixir inspired by the Flower Market at Covent Garden, Fanfare is a melodic fantasy with a touch of impertinence exuding the spirit of contemporary British aesthetic.

It opens with a beguiling watery floral and citrus accord, which slowly becomes darker as the structure evolves and becomes more daring with the vermouth accord. Finally, the noble woods bring this sombre depth to the structure of the fragrance.

Key Fragrance Notes

Fanfare was the first fragrance in the Britologne Collection, launching in 2023. Created by perfumer Bruno Jovanovic, it takes inspiration from Pygmalion (fun fact: I actually saw a performance of My Fair Lady with Christopher on an Amouage press trip to NYC, it’s a small world), specifically the Covent Garden Flower Market, which the play immortalises. Fanfare sets the tone for the collection nicely, with a vivid, vibrant citrus accord that showcases a perfect marriage of lemon and bergamot. It’s incredibly juicy and bubbly up top before transitioning into crisp, fresh cut flowers, aromatic vermouth and juniper. It’s bright, bracing and bold with just a hint of bitterness. A lovely, long-lasting cologne with lots of interesting things going on – an excellent place to start!
