stainlessness
Freedom from blemish
Stainlessness is the quality of being without stain—literally spotless, or figuratively unblemished in character or reputation.
The word appears most often in moral or spiritual contexts: the stainlessness of her honor, a life of stainlessness.
It sounds formal and somewhat old-fashioned.
