sultry
Hot and heavy
Sultry describes weather that is hot and humid—oppressively warm with moisture hanging in the air: a sultry August afternoon.
The discomfort of such weather extends to a second meaning: sexually attractive in a languid, smoldering way.
A sultry voice or glance suggests slow-burning desire rather than overt seduction: She gave him a sultry look across the room.
