According to Polizia di Stato website (official Italian Police website), currently there are just two product approved for carrying with oneself; they (a pen and a key-ring) have a modest amount of Oleorisin Capsicum or Black Pepper; product not approved by the Minister are considered an "arma propria", an object made with the specific purpose of giving physical damage to somebody; some kind of "armi proprie" can be kept and used inside one's own house with no license, but cannot be brought outside; that's for other kind of pepper sprays other than the two mentioned above.
