if your sexual desire is a subset of an overall lust for life, it's much, much more likely to be perceived as attractive
if your sexual desire is disproportionate to your lust for life, it becomes a source of offputting, gollum like craving, extremely unattractive

This is the Ant Death Spiral. Ants end up following the pheromones of one another, and they get stuck like this and eventually they can die of exhaustion.
