"Planting flowers in your front yard will make your home more attractive."
"I bought this car because the loan terms were attractive."
fascinating = very interesting; you're so drawn to it that you can't look away

A beautiful person with no personality would be attractive but not fascinating. A bad car accident would be fascinating but definitely not attractive.
