Resinous, strong, complex
Strangers Parfumerie Euphories is a sweet, spicy, resinous blend featuring tolu balsam, hay, vanilla, rum, cinnamon, hazelnut, as well as some floral and fruity notes. It’s fairly sweet but not a gourmand, and the resinous aspects lean creamy and a little smoky rather than animalic, having a multifaceted sort of feel, very complex, and very rich. I imagine this could prove challenging for some, as it’s not as gourmand-forward as some of the more specifically coffee-rich scents in the catalogue, but Euphories has more of the makings of a Slumberhouse-type scent with resins and a whole lot going on, so the upside is very high for those that like this type of scent. As is usually the case, the opening was a bit spicier and more provocative and the fragrance then settles down into a more harmonious blend. Overall, I like the balance and strength of it. It feels carefully thought out and lands in a great spot. And it’s probably the strongest perfume from Strangers that I’ve tried so far.
While most fragrances in the line are EDP concentration, Euphories is extrait concentration, and as such, has the higher pricing of $110 for 30ml.
