essenced

Adjective CEFR B2

Definitions

Having an essence; scented.

Examples

“Oh evil was the root, and bitter was the fruit, And crimson was the juice of the vintage that we trod; For we trampled on the throng of the haughty and the strong, Who sate in the high places, and slew the saints of God. It was about the noon of a glorious day of June, That we saw⟳ their banners dance⟳, and their cuirasses shine⟳, And the Man of Blood was there, with his long essenced hair, And Astley, and Sir Marmaduke, and Rupert of the Rhine.”
“Painted for ſight, and eſſenc'd for the ſmell, / Like⟳ frigates fraught with ſpice and cochine'l, / Sail⟳ in the Ladies: how each Pyrate eyes / So weak a veſſel, and ſo rich a prize!”
“He liked the public to think⟳ of him, exquisitely habited, his long essenced hair falling about his eyes, flinging forth a torrent of musky and mellifluous improvisation; as a matter⟳ of fact he was a very hard worker, laborious in the arts of composition.”
