Cloyless

/ˈklɔɪləs/ adjective

Definition

Not causing someone to feel tired or disgusted; able to be enjoyed repeatedly without becoming tiresome.

Etymology

From 'cloy' plus the suffix '-less,' which negates the root word, creating an adjective meaning 'without cloy' or 'not subject to cloying.'

Kelly Says

Think of a truly great song versus a one-hit wonder—great art is often cloyless because it has layers that reveal something new each time you experience it, so satisfaction never turns to disgust.
