lovelier

More pleasing aesthetically

Lovelier is the comparative form of lovely, indicating a greater degree of beauty, charm, or appeal.

It compares two things: The garden looked even lovelier in spring.

The word carries the same warm, somewhat gentle quality as lovely itself—more likely to describe a cottage or a melody than something grand or impressive.
