Titania, the Fairy Queen, is not seduced by Bottom’s donkey head out of magic nectar. In this version, Oberon’s love-potion is actually a neuro-toxin derived from a flower that grows in the absence of sleep—the "Dian's Bud" (an inversion of the original "Love-in-idleness"). When Titania falls in love with Bottom, she isn't enchanted. She is suffering from induced folie à deux, clinging to the only creature in the forest as delusional as she is.
