newness
Recently arrived state
Newness is the quality of being new—recently made, discovered, or experienced.
It captures the fresh, unfamiliar character of something: the newness of the relationship, the newness wore off after a few weeks.
Newness often carries positive associations with excitement and possibility, though it can also imply inexperience or untested quality.
