A blessing that is said before and after deriving pleasure from something such as eating, drinking, and a good scent (there exists a distinct blessing before the enjoyment and a separate blessing after it).

("And the matter of the lamb of the Omer when waving it is a gift to the Lord blessed be He upon the first of the harvest to permit its consumption as the matter of the blessing of enjoyment" - Seforno, Torah Intentions.)

Definition (Hebrew)

בְּרָכָה שֶׁיֵּשׁ לְאָמְרָהּ לִפְנֵי וְאַחֲרֵי שֶׁנֶּהֱנִים מִמַּשֶּׁהוּ כְּמוֹ אֲכִילָה, שְׁתִיָּה וְרֵיחַ טוֹב (קַיֶּמֶת בְּרָכָה נִפְרֶדֶת לִפְנֵי הַהֲנָאָה וּבְרָכָה נִפְרֶדֶת לְאַחֲרֶיהָ).

("וְעִנְיַן הַכֶּבֶשׂ לָעוֹלֶה בְּהָנִיף אֶת הָעֹמֶר הוּא דּוֹרוֹן לָאֵל יִתְבָּרַךְ עַל רֵאשִׁית הַקָּצִיר לְהַתִּירוֹ לְהֶדְיוֹט כְּעִנְיַן בִּרְכַּת הַנֶּהֱנִין"- סְפוֹרְנוֹ כַּוָּנוֹת הַתּוֹרָה).
