Awe inspiring and then awe instilling

A better version of intoxicating. En vivir, to give life to. Intoxify is to have something "give you life" by way of its presence, personality, abilities, gifts, actions, etc.

Ex: Ice cubes melting in a glass of water, and periodically making a clinking noise against the glass that lets you know subtle changes are happening; this effect can have the affect of "intoxifying" someone--mostly working through awe.

Being in awe of something, while it instills within you the qualities that caused awe
Driving over a bridge at night while it is raining can be intoxifying.
