Recherché


recherché \rə-ˌsher-ˈshā\ adjective: 1 a. exquisite, choice, b. exotic, rare, 2: excessively refined; affected, 3. pretentious, overblown

Etymology: French, from past participle of rechercher to seek out, from Middle French recercher to go about seeking, from Old French recerchier, from re- again, backward + cerchier, sercher to search

Is it recherché to use the term recherché?
