balmier

Warmer and gentler

Balmier is the comparative form of balmy—more mild, more soothing, more pleasantly warm.

Weather grows balmier as spring advances: Each day felt balmier than the last.

In the British slang sense where balmy means crazy or foolish, balmier would mean more so, though this use is uncommon.
