Edenic
Like biblical paradise
Edenic describes something resembling or relating to the Garden of Eden—paradise before the Fall, a state of perfect innocence and natural abundance.
The word suggests unspoiled beauty, harmony, and freedom from suffering: an Edenic childhood on the farm, the Edenic landscape of the untouched rainforest.
Often carries undertones of something lost or threatened. (Lowercase edenic is a less common variant.)
