Morphology
The meaning 'consistently liked over a long period' is transparently built from 'perennial' (lasting or recurring over a long period) modifying 'favorite' (a person or thing especially liked). This straightforward adjective+noun composition follows common semantic combination patterns and would be clear to learners who know both constituent words.
Etymology
Perennial favorite comes from gardening: a perennial is a plant that comes back every year and a favorite is something people like, so a perennial favorite is something that keeps being 'liked' year after year.
