Ambrosial

/æmˈbroʊziəl/ adjective

Definition

Exceptionally pleasing to taste or smell; divinely delicious or fragrant. Refers to something so delightful it seems fit for the gods, often describing food, scents, or other sensory experiences.

Etymology

From Greek 'ambrosia,' the food of the gods that conferred immortality, from 'ambrotos' meaning 'immortal' (from 'a-' not + 'brotos' mortal). The word maintains its association with divine, otherworldly pleasure.

Kelly Says

Remember 'ambrosia'—the food of the gods in Greek mythology! Anything ambrosial is so delicious it's literally 'god-food quality.' Think of the most amazing smell or taste you've ever experienced—that's ambrosial!
