The act or result of cloying; the state of being cloyed or disgusted by excess.
From 'cloy' plus the suffix '-ment,' which forms nouns indicating an action, process, or resulting state, similar to 'encroachment' or 'bereavement.'
This archaic word captures a specific moment in time—the cloyment of eating too much chocolate cake is different from just having cloyedness, emphasizing the actual process of becoming disgusted.
