Bewitched

Captivated by magic

Bewitched means under a spell or magical influence, as if enchanted by a witch: The bewitched prince wandered the forest for years.

More commonly, it describes being captivated or fascinated beyond reason: He was completely bewitched by her.

The word suggests an attraction so powerful it overrides normal judgment.
