blemished
This term describes a loss of perfection, whether tangible or abstract. When applied to physical objects, it suggests a surface-level defect—such as a bruise on fruit or a scratch on furniture—that reduces aesthetic value without necessarily destroying the object's utility.
In a social or professional context, the word carries a heavier emotional weight, implying a permanent stain on one's honor or history. It is often used in formal or legalistic registers to describe a record or reputation that has been compromised by a specific failure or transgression.
