“fruition” in Latin

The English word fruition itself goes back to Latin fruor, through fruitiō.

Riddle & Arnold A Copious and Critical English–Latin Lexicon, 1864

fruition
fructus (the proper word): usus (the use of anything; both as state, when we have the enjoyment of anything): usura (the use without the full possession: natura dedit usuram vitae, tamquam pecuniae). Often by circumlocution; the happy man must have the fruition of the good things he possesses, utatur suis bonis oportet et fruatur, qui beatus futurus est.
