bewitcher

One who enchants

A bewitcher is someone who bewitches—casting a spell or enchantment over another.

The word appears most often in figurative contexts, describing someone whose charm or beauty captivates others: She was a bewitcher of men.

The term is literary and old-fashioned, more likely found in fairy tales than contemporary speech.
