soupçon

{via here}

Soupçon, pronounced susɒn, is a very small amount; a hint; a trace. What a delightful word - I am going to use this one today. So much more descriptive than an ounce, or a smidgen, or a little bit.

A soupçon of a smile (on that stranger's face)

Vailla ice-cream drizzled with a soupçon of olive oil (ooh lala)

A  soupçon of magic (in Jacaranda strewn streets)

Yes. It's a good one. Give it a try.
