By the editors · 2 min readCecita opens with an unusual pairing: sweet apricot pulp laced through sharp galbanum, a contrast that feels both vintage and oddly modern. The green resin cuts through the fruit just before either can settle, creating a bright, slightly angular introduction that refuses easy charm.
The heart softens into a lush floral arrangement where jasmine and rose take classical roles, but osmanthus adds a subtle apricot-suede echo that ties back to the opening. This middle phase blooms warmly without tipping into excess, the flowers handled with restraint rather than loudness.
By the drydown, sandalwood and vanilla create a creamy, skin-close finish, musk lending it a soapy-clean quality that feels distinctly Brazilian—unpretentious, wearable, quietly sensual. For those who appreciate eighties florals before they became bombastic, Cecita offers a gentler expression of the era's aesthetic: fruit-forward but not syrupy, floral but not shouty, sweet but grounded.
