neutral  Michael Korovkin: sorry, Sabina, I don't put"disagree" because I'm participating with my own answer; but sensual means чувственный. Сладострастный should be quite a bit more, should we say, depraved?The difference is like l'oef alla tartuffe and bacon an' eggs,respectively

  -> Михаил, если вы проверите в толково-образовательном словаре (например, признанного авторитета Ефремова), то убедитесь, что сладострастный означает "возбуждающий повышенную чувственность, располагающий к чувственным наслаждениям".
