blasé

Blasé is an adjective used to describe someone who is unimpressed or indifferent, often due to having had too much experience with something. It suggests a lack of excitement or enthusiasm because of overexposure. A person described as blasé might appear bored or jaded, having seen or done things so often that they no longer hold novelty or interest. This state can be a result of a luxurious lifestyle, extensive travel, or repeated exposure to thrilling or stimulating activities. The term implies a certain weariness that prevents genuine appreciation or emotional response. For instance, someone who has attended countless extravagant parties might become blasé about such events, finding them routine rather than exciting. The word originates from the French verb "blaser," meaning to weary or to make indifferent. It carries a connotation of sophistication, but also of a loss of wonder.
