It’s not a problem with passport control to leave. But airlines can have their own take on things.

But given what you mention of having two passports, you can show both passports to the airline and have them use whichever one facilitates your travel best.

Enjoy your trip. I’ve been in this kind of situation many times for my dual-citizen travel party members. While it can make for some weird discussions with airline reps or even passport control staff at times, it’s not a show-stopper for the trips.

Show the Brazilian passport at checkin when leaving EU/Schengen for Brazil, and show the Italian passport at Italian/Schengen passport control. Have no fear and doubt, and enjoy your trip as this works out just fine.
