euphoria

/juːˈfɔːɹi.ə/noun

A powerful feeling of happiness and excitement.

Example sentence

“She felt pure euphoria when she heard she had passed the exam.”

Clinical writing uses it warily, since drugs and mania can produce it artificially. Everyday use means intense but temporary joy: post-victory euphoria.
