Eloise and Ivy are awake because Ivy wanted it that way. Victoria wasn’t fully awake as Ivy simply cursed her to think she was.

It’s not a magic thing. Samdi is awake because apparently he had pulled a Rumple and was likewise cursed by made sure he had a way to trigger his memories.

Anyway, it appears that there are those that didn’t have a trigger or not picked by Ivy that are partially or fully awake are a bit loony: Nick and Tilly. It’s not known why those two remember. Either the curse just didn’t affect them due to something magical they had/did beforehand or....we won’t get that answer. Possibly because Nick and Tilly are a bit crazy, just like Jefferson in season 1...
