allurements

Things that entice

Allurements are things that attract or entice, often with a suggestion of temptation or seduction.

The word carries a slightly old-fashioned elegance: the allurements of city life, She resisted the allurements of fame.

Unlike simple attractions, allurements imply something powerfully appealing that draws you toward pleasure or indulgence.
