lady-killer
Irresistible to women
A lady-killer is a man considered dangerously attractive to women—someone whose charm supposedly devastates female hearts.
The term is old-fashioned and often used playfully or ironically: He fancies himself quite the lady-killer.
It suggests seductive power without necessarily implying malice.
