Radiation?
Hi,
I have trouble finding the noun(s) to express the "radiation" someone has - the quality you feel about them, e.g. they can have the air of a captain or director, or of a less strong and smoother type, or have a ’’radiation” which is lively like a mouse, or a sort which is almost as if someone had tickled you and you always cheer up from it, etc. What is the proper word(s) that describes this in a person?
Please, could you tell me? Thank you very much.
(And can you use ’’emanation’’ for a person?)

'Emanation' is possible. An aura? An air? A feeling? An impression? A quality? – These are all in use in some situations. I would have to see more of the context.
