Scent Dossier

State Of Mind Open Mind is a fresh aromatic built for daytime use, especially in Spring and Summer. It starts bright and lightly spicy, then settles into a clean tea-and-wood profile with soft musk. The overall feel is crisp, relaxed, and put-together without turning sharp or heavy. It makes a smart pick for work, casual days, and travel if you want something airy, tasteful, and easy to live with.

A Scent For

This suits someone who wants to smell fresh and composed without leaning overly sporty, sweet, or loud. It is a strong choice for office wear, commuting, and low-key daily use, especially if you like dry tea notes and clean woods more than dessert-like warmth. Many wearers describe it as an easy reach when they want something tasteful but not showy. Not for someone chasing huge projection or a rich evening scent.

When and Where

Spring and Summer are where this one makes the most sense, especially during the day. It fits office settings, casual lunches, city errands, and travel really well because it stays neat and unobtrusive. The soft trail makes it comfortable in close quarters and shared spaces. It is less convincing for cold nights, dressed-up events, or anyone wanting a bold scent presence, since the whole profile stays airy and restrained.

Deeper Detail

How it Opens

Bright citrus comes through quickly, but it is not a loud lemon blast. Bergamot gives it a clean lift, while cardamom and pink pepper add a dry, gently spicy edge that keeps it from feeling basic. The effect is fresh, tidy, and alert rather than sporty or sugary. It gives a clear daytime impression right away, with enough character to feel intentional but not enough weight to become demanding.

How it develops

After the early sparkle settles, the tea side becomes more noticeable and gives the scent its personality. Black tea and mate add a slightly dry, leafy feel, while jasmine softens the center without making it floral-heavy. In the later stages, cedar and vetiver bring a clean woodiness; vetiver adds an earthy, grassy dryness that keeps the musk from feeling too soft. It stays light on its feet and never turns dense.

History

Released in 2017, Open Mind sits in State Of Mind’s modern niche style with a clear focus on tea-driven freshness. Based on its aromatic, citrus, woody, and musky profile, it fits the brand’s polished daytime side rather than a dark or dramatic direction. Exact positioning details are limited, but the scent clearly aims at unisex wearers who want a clean, contemporary signature for daily use.

Our Verdict

Buy it if you want a clean, tea-tinged daytime scent that feels smart, fresh, and easy to wear in warm weather. Skip it if you prefer sweetness, heavy woods, or strong projection that announces itself across a room.

Sauvage Eau Forte echoes Open Mind's aromatic and fresh spicy accords, with bergamot and spices in the top notes. But it strips away the tea and floral heart, focusing instead on a stark lavender and woody musk core. This makes Sauvage Eau Forte more linear and minimalist, with a sharper, more metallic feel. Open Mind is softer and more nuanced, with its tea and jasmine adding a natural, slightly sweet touch.
