Was it the look, was it when she touched him. or was it just being in his presence. All Nick knows is Henrietta has the ability to influence. He knows no more how to protect against it then he did before he know it existed. In the right situation he might not have even known he was influenced. The Idea is to do it without the other party knowing. So how could any Grimm document about influencing if they don't know it exist. If they did know it existed if would be document as while around hexenbiest you can be influenced. Nick was aware of it because henrietta did a demonstration. Here is another example a Grimm sees a car blow up. Of what part of the Grimms documentation of that event could be used to know how to blow up a car. Given the past and peoples lack of understanding. Having that event attributed to an individual may not even be documented. It would be assumed they used something. Take something a simple as a woge. Juliette has seen it done. She has read the books. She had even done it. But her answer when Henrietta ask her to woge. "I don't know how" So how would a Grimm every document anything that could be of use on how to woge.
I am just saying that if no Grimm has been influenced that way before Nick will now note it is possible in his books. If some has and they did then Juliette will know it is possible. The mechanism is not evident. Maybe she influenced his thoughts, maybe his hormones. And the Grimms method to break free or not be influenced can tell a lot, "do not make eye contact" is vastly different than "Do not let her touch you" or "put cotton in your ears." She seemed to be influencing his sexual desire to me but there are many components to Sexual desire. Just knowing it can be done can lead Juliette to experiment.
It does not have to be in a bad way. A trip to farmers market on a Wednesday then one to the flee market on Saturday or Sunday. Her entire goal to bargain someone in to giving her something for free. Men do such things because they find a woman attractive all the time, "It is only two extra oranges or lemons and she is so beautiful." She is just trying different ideas till she finds the one that works for her, which might not be the same as the one Henrieta used.
If I had something important to say, I would have mumbled it.
