Miles:
It seems to me that this is simply the same as with chocolate in our world.
Dementors make you forget everything happy in your live, whereas chocolate
contains phenylethylamine (is this English?), causing feelings of happyness
in us, similar to the hormone status when fallen in love.

Miles:
I don't know the English audiobooks, but as Lestrange is a French name,
maybe the narrator chose to give her/them an French accent. But I don't see
any canon support for this.
