I like words too much to have favourites. But there are some that are fun to read and hear in my head like mellifluous (ironically), ones that are fun to say like Popocatépetl, magnanimous and phenomenon and ones that are fun to write like oeuvre and banana. I am also a fan of shenanigans. And scurrilous harlotry.

Moist is a much nicer word to say than damp so I am with you.

Salubrious. I adore that word. Pulchritudinous also. And quintessential. I also love saying the words meander and superfluous. I love this language.

I adore the fact pulchritudinous looks like it means the direct opposite. It really tickles me.

Not really a word but I use "ooerr" for anything that's unintended as a double entendre. It's from "Filthy Rich and Catflap". Insane sitcom with Rik Mayall and Ade Edmonson.

A (now retired) biology teacher I know said that it was impossible to use the words 'moist' and 'moisture' in class without the class falling about hysterically.

Yes! Many years ago whilst watching an episode of Call My Bluff they had a word that meant having a hairy arse. I didn't make a note of it and have been trying to remember it ever since. As a result of your vellichor reference and me googling the etymology I re-discovered in a list of words associated with another favourite of mine, callipygian. So decades later I shall finally be able to use the term dasypygal. Thank you!

Epistemophilia might work. Apart from the fact the word reminds me of epididymis, which is something else entirely.
