riz

Effortless seductive appeal

Riz is slang for charisma or romantic appeal—the ability to attract others effortlessly.

Short for "charisma" with the first syllable dropped, it emerged from internet and gaming culture: He's got serious riz, She rizzed him up in five minutes.

The verb form means to charm or seduce someone, usually through smooth conversation or confident presence.
