danaxtell commented on the word cellar door
Cellar Door's euphone is exhaustively explored in the NY Times On Language column of Feb. 14, 2010. I'll add one hypothesis: It sounds Italian and, more specifically, like "stella d'oro," gold star.

Cellar Door is exhaustively explored by Grant Barrett in the NY Times On Language column of Feb. 14, 2010. I'd like to add one hypothesis: "Cellar Door" sounds beautiful in part because it sounds Italian and more so because it sounds like "stella d'oro," gold star.
