lasciviously

In lustful manner

Lasciviously describes doing something in a way that shows or arouses sexual desire, often with an undertone of inappropriateness: He stared lasciviously at her across the bar.

The word carries a sense of excess or impropriety—not merely attracted, but openly, perhaps offensively so.
