Al Haramain Perfumes released Euphoric Roots in 2023 as a unisex EDP. The fragrance is part of the house's broad catalog of Middle Eastern-inspired compositions, and it arrives with a note pyramid that mixes citrus and florals up top, berries in the heart, and amber and musk at the base. On Fragrantica, it holds an overall rating of 4.0 out of 5. The 75ml bottle is priced between $33 and $123 depending on the retailer.
Euphoric Roots is not a loud oud or a sharp citrus cologne. Instead, it leans into a sweet, soft, slightly powdery profile that sits close enough for evening wear but still leaves a noticeable trail. The listed accords include citrus, white floral, fruity, musky, amber, sweet, powdery, rose, fresh and animalic. That combination explains why the scent can feel bright at first and then turn warm, cozy and skin-like as it dries down.
This review breaks down the notes, scent evolution, performance, seasonality, occasions, value and similar fragrances. It is based on the verified data available for Euphoric Roots, including its note pyramid, concentration, price range and Fragrantica rating. Where information is not publicly available, such as the perfumer's identity or detailed sub-ratings, that is noted rather than guessed.
The first 0-30 minutes opens with bright bergamot, lemon and citrus fruits, lifted by an unexpected jasmine and rose floral touch. It feels fresh and slightly sweet before the berries arrive.
