This potion is such as to cause the individual drinking it to become charmed (cf. charm spells :
[charm person, charm monster, charm plants] with the first creature seen after consuming the draught,
or actually become enamored and charmed if the creature is of similar race and of the opposite sex.

Charming effects wear off in 4 + 1-4 turns, but the enamoring effects last until a dispel magic spell is cast upon the individual.

Appearance/Consistency: cloudy
Transparency: translucent
Colour: metallic

Upon drinking a philtre of love
An elf suffered effects thereof.
As his head started reeling,
He looked to the ceiling.
Now he's wedded a lurker above.
