glamouring
Weaving magical charm
Glamouring is casting a spell of illusion or enchantment over someone, making them see what isn't there or feel irresistibly drawn to something.
The term comes from fantasy and folklore, where faeries or vampires glamour humans to manipulate perception: The vampire was glamouring her into forgetting what she'd seen.
In everyday use, glamouring can mean deliberately projecting an alluring image.
