If something is inviting, it looks or feels so pleasant that you want to go nearer, sit down, try it, or taste it. A sofa can look inviting. A smell from the kitchen can be inviting. A smile can be inviting. It is a warm, everyday adjective, not a stiff one. Though actually, it is not the same as invited: an inviting cake did not receive an invitation — it is a cake that pulls you in. People also use it for places and offers: an inviting stretch of beach, an inviting job. The feeling is simply “come closer; this looks good.”
