hotness
Jalapeño's burning quality
Hotness is the quality of being hot—primarily high temperature, but the word appears most often describing physical attractiveness.
Someone with hotness is sexually appealing: Her hotness was undeniable.
In food, hotness refers to spiciness: The hotness of the salsa overwhelmed everything else.
The temperature sense is less common; people usually say heat instead.
