luscious
Sensuously sweet, appealing
Luscious describes something richly pleasurable to the senses, especially taste.
Luscious peaches, luscious chocolate cake.
The word suggests sweetness, ripeness, and indulgence.
It extends to other sensory pleasures—luscious colors, luscious fabrics—and to physical attractiveness: luscious lips, a luscious figure.
The connotation is always of abundance and sensual appeal.
