food and wine, "Petrossian" the ultimate producer of caviar and "Petrus" the extremely expensive wine from Pomerol in Bordeaux, France. The stem is then combined with "
orgasm" from the
French "orgasme," from Greek "orgasmos" "excitement, swelling," from "organ" "be in heat, become ripe for,"
literally "to swell, be excited," related to orge "impulse, excitement, anger" (www.etymonline.com).
