-'''Sensual Attraction''', also known as '''Sensorial Attraction''', is a type of physical [[attraction]] to another person involving the senses, usually the sense of touch. This is not an explicitly sexual form of physical touch, for example, sensual attraction could involve an interest in nonsexual forms of touch such as cuddling, kissing, or massage. Sensual attraction can also be applied in non-tactile ways, such as attraction to voices. In the [[A-Spec|a-spec]] community, it is often helpful to distinguish sensual attraction from [[Sexual Attraction|sexual attraction]].

 The first flag was coined by tumblr user arya-fae on or before September 3, 2015<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/pride-flags/art/Sensual-Ace-Aro-557589529</ref><ref>https://pride-color-schemes.tumblr.com/post/147083424165/sensual</ref>. The flag was based on the asexual flag. The multiple shades of purple represent different elements of sensual attraction such as sight, touch, hugs, caresses, kisses, and similar physical senses.
