It is also a term in business deals that refers to bonuses added to a contract or deal to make it more appealing, e.g.- "I sell you the house for £300,000 and I'll include a year membership at my club as a sweetener"

Answer

Usually sweetener is something you put in your coffee instead of sugar,if you are on a diet.It makes the coffee sweet but doesn't have a lot of calories like sugar.I don't quite understand how this was applied to a person.If you give a link maybe I can understand it better.
