enchantment
State of bewitchment
Enchantment is the state of being under a magical spell, or the act of casting one.
Fairy tales feature enchantments that transform princes into frogs or put princesses to sleep.
Extended to ordinary life, enchantment means captivated delight: The garden held a certain enchantment at dusk.
To fall under someone's enchantment is to be utterly charmed by them.
