‘Abundance’ describes the amount of something when their is a lot.
Eg. ‘An abundance of leaves’ is a pile of lots of leaves.
‘Wealth’ is a valuable possession that makes someone rich or wealthy, or it can mean the same as abundance.
Eg. ‘He gathered a large wealth over the years.’
Or Eg. ‘He owns a wealth of cars.’
Affluence is also similar to abundance. It describes a large quantity.
(If it’s used to describe a person as being rich it is slightly different to wealthy. Someone who is wealthy will never have to work to stay rich, however someone affluent has the potential of becoming monetarily vulnerable again.)
Profusion describes something that is far more lavish and in larger quantity than normal.
Eg. ‘A profusion of gilded turrets decorated the castle’
Despite some small differences in meaning using them interchangeably is perfectly acceptable.
Most native speakers use them interchangeably and may not even know the differences between them, so don’t worry about mixing them up!
I hope this helps!
