luxuriate
Wallow in pleasure
To luxuriate is to take deep, indulgent pleasure in something—to revel in comfort, abundance, or sensory delight: She luxuriated in a hot bath after the long hike, He luxuriated in the attention.
The word implies not just enjoying something but savoring it slowly and thoroughly, often with a hint of excess or self-indulgence.
