In barest terms it is a synonym for boredom, however it is often used to hint at a type of lingering existential boredom, which is not easily relieved. I.e boredom refers to a state while ennui implies a attribute, boredom is temporary while ennui is the default

I think of it as the curse of benefactors, if a rather minor one. It doesn't take much curiosity or imagination to be free of it most of the time, even in circumstances of extraordinary comfort and security. Personally, I like a lot of privacy, quiet, and domestic order, and while never entirely happy without friends willing and able to talk about almost everything that drifts into their attention or haunts their dreams, am not unduly troubled by their absences. Good conversation has its place, but so does memory. It doesn't hurt that my immediate and extended family has, and had, rather a lot of memorable characters in it.
