Origin

Late Middle English (in the sense 'fragrance, aroma'): from Old French flaor, perhaps based on a blend of Latin flatus 'blowing' and foetor 'stench'; the -v- appears to have been introduced in Middle English by association with savour. sense 1 of the noun dates from the late 17th century.

Originally flavour was associated with smell rather than taste, and meant ‘fragrance’. Linked in English with savour (Middle English) which comes from Latin sapere ‘to taste’, it comes from an Old French word which might be a combination of Latin flatus ‘blowing’ and foetor ‘unpleasant smell’. The current meaning of ‘a distinctive taste’ dates from the 17th century. In the 1930s American ice-cream parlours ran campaigns to promote a particular flavour of the month, giving us the phrase we use today to mean ‘something that is currently very popular.’
