savorless

Meanings

1. 1
   adj

   having little or no taste, flavor, or appetizing quality

   Without salt or herbs, the broth was thin and savorless.

2. 2
   adj

   figurative: lacking interest, pleasure, spirit, or appeal

From savor + -less, continuing Middle English savourles. The literal absence of taste or flavor readily developed a figurative sense for experiences or feelings that lack interest, pleasure, or vitality.
