    I just tried my sample, and it’s 95% same scent as Dyptique Philosykos, but a little more feminine, and better performance, brighter in a way.

    One of my favorite fig-based perfumes, The Tree of Enlightenment is a beautiful Oriental fig that is tranquil, green, soothing and meditative. The perfume begins with a whiff of fig leaves and hesperidium, and moves into a central base of the fig fruit. Finally, it settles into a beautiful Oriental base of sandalwood, patchouli and fig bark. This is absolutely radiant on my skin and I am overwhelmed with positive and spiritual energy. I usually wear it before I head to teach class as it keeps me inspired and focused. Not for everyone like most fig-based perfumes but one of the most beautifully blended and balanced in this category. Enjoy!

    Finally a fabulous fig perfume that is not only long lasting but is also somewhat complex. Just get past the opening which can seem initially harsh, and you might very well be on your you to a fragrant “enlightenment.”

    Fragrance dedicated to a Hindu legend that speaks of a fig tree, also called the tree of knowledge.
    The citrus-herbal-fruity entrance feels uncontrolled, too acidic, by the citrus incisors or the rough notes of grass or by a mixture of both (I think the perfumer passed). The fruity note is nice, sweet, mellow, but figs ?? I do not smell figs on any side, but I smell them on strawberries with banana. As it evolves, the fruit-wood agreement is installed in which the incisive super acidic note is lowered, the “fig” is softened and the sandalwood note is increased with fig tree wood, here another error because the fig tree wood feels too camphorated, Earthy and dry, even to something moldy, looking rather papyrus or eucalyptus with sandalwood and a touch of musk.
    I dont know!! I do not like what I smell. Balance error at the entrance, the fig does not look like fig and mistake in not hitting with the fig wood in the drying, much camphor by means it also discontrol the drying …..
    There are too many mistakes, and although the mixture is perfect, it lasts well and projects well, it’s a suspense on my part, because I can not find that legend tree anywhere.

    It appears not to be listed but in this scent you can smell everything from the fig: from the fruit, to the foliage, to the wood (sandalwood? It doesn’t seem soo..), all the way down through the roots. I don’t smell the other components though.. As a general rule of thumb imagine Philosykos and enhance it, multiply it, squeeze that juice!

    Green-green fig with a hint of lemon and spice! Very energizing and sophisticated at the same time. Sharp grassy-lemon opening calms down in 5 minutes revealing interesting combination of fig and sandalwood. It is not heavy despite of sandalwood in the mix. I would even call it new kind of ozonic scent because it is so fresh. Like it!

    Dry, herbaceous, leafy, dusty, earthy, fruity – perfect for the warm breezy days of late summer and early autumn. Reminds me of the natural scent in the air in rural California and the original Napa Valley Cielo fragrance, but deeper and richer. L’Arbre de la Connaissance is my favorite fig scent. Very high class fig, rivaling Diptyque Philosykos.

    No. No. No. It’s intriguingly complex, but the overriding scent conjures up the flavor of buttered popcorn Jelly Bellies and pieces of live fig tree having been fed through a woodchipper. Some things just shouldn’t be paired, much less turned into a perfume.

    My initial impression of this fragrance was that I did indeed LOVE it but that it was far too “soft” (silage & longevity) for my liking…fast forward two months to this weekend and I decided to retry the small ampule of L’Arbre de la Connaissance, given to me by a local perfume shop…I am was thrilled to realize that my initial impression was, indeed partly correct but also partly wrong…YES, I still do LOVE this fragrance — it is so very sexy and heavenly beautiful; but NO, it isn’t too “soft” in any way shape or form — the longevity and sillage are phenomenally impressive…sillage is perfect: nicely assertive but doesn’t bowl one over, so to speak…longevity is marathon-like: 12+ hours if I give myself a good two sprays to each arm (about 15 minutes apart) and the neck area…Will definitely be adding this fragrance to my collection…I’ll b-line it to the local perfume shop tomorrow morning to snag myself a 100 ml of this beauty…have a feeling this fragrance will be one of my most beloved fragrances for years to come…when I smell L’Arbre de la Connaissance I feel completely at peace and beauty appears everywhere…I love the green notes that are always there to one degree or another and an almost soft beautiful “nutty-like” aroma the weaves itself in & out of the composition…the sandalwood in the dry down is celestial…and the fig never becomes to sweet or jam-like…Many times over, I find myself irresistibly drawn to smelling my forearms where it has been applied…A big, thank you to Jovoy Paris for producing this absolute heaven-scent gem!

    Every 4 years I’m going for the conference to the small city Kolymbari on Crete. During the summer this is really hot and sunny place where many fig trees are sending they pheromones around 🙂 L’Arbre de la Connaissance smells exactly like these pheromones giving unbelievable sexy aura around. I’m not even trying to analyze elements of this composition, for me the final effect is such wonderful that I feel like in the sumer vacation heaven. The top fig composition – best ever and forever.

    First opening, I thought I would love this scent. It was fresh and green and reminded me of when, as a child, I used to lay out on grass that was still slightly damp with the morning dew. There was just the slightest hint of a sort of mild musty earthiness underlaying it. Just the right counterpoint to that heady opening greenness.
    Unfortunately, as time progressed, that mustiness grew. Two hours into L’Arbre de la Connaissance and my wrist had turned into what I can only describe as a dust bunny. Smells like when I sweep cat-hair and debris from under the bed after a couple of weeks of being lazy on my housekeeping. I mean… how do you get essence of dust so perfectly? Every time I smelled my wrist, the odd question popped into my head “why am I not sneezing?”
    It’s too bad. I loved the opening but don’t want to end up smelling like a giant, human dust bunny.

    “The Tree of Knowledge”
    I don’t know what it is with Jovoy Paris and their choice of fragrance names, but I think they are awesome!
    Wrapped in legendary imagery, the Tree of Knowledge as this scent’s name translates to, transforms the wearer to the Garden of Eden with its notes of Fig and Fig Leaves. The ‘milk’ found in freshly-cut figs is what oozes right from the first spritz of this heavy-duty bottle, meaning the wearer has that effect of walking in a sun-drenched Mediterranean (perhaps) forest, full of fig trees a brief moment after a heavy rain shower.
    There are many fig scents out there. Some are blended with (white) musk, others with citrus, but Jovoy’s offering has a unique creamy sandalwood base which is both long lasting and projects quite strongly for several hours. Delicious!

    Freshly crushed fig leaves on a subtle woody base of patchouly and sandalwood. Fortunately, the fig fruit isn’t very noticeable: Fig is a fruit that you either love or hate, and I tend to steer on the hate side. It somehow reminds me of… intimate parts, that is all. Anyway, I do love the woody and leafy parts of this Mediterranean plant for all the memories it conjures up to my mnd.
    With that said, as much as I avoid fig fruit in fragrances (especially Un Jardin en Mediterranée, probably the worst fig to my nose) I do make an exception for Phylosikos (fresh and milky fig leaves) and probably this one, although I den’t really adore it (masculine, woody fig leaves).
    But the most remarkable quality of this fragrance is how fresh it stays throughout the hours, whereas other fragrances turn slightly “stale” to the extent that they lose their top notes and settle down.

    For the first hour on my skin, all I can smell is patchouli and sandalwood, with a sickly, sharp sweetness. The fig doesn’t emerge until well after the scent has given me a headache, which is a shame because the fig note itself is really quite lovely.
    I keep coming back to this, to see if I can force myself to like it. But unfortunately, my chemistry and this scent do not mix, and it’s headache city. And what a shame! If it was entirely that fig, I’d wear it every day.

    Yet Another Jovoy Perfume I Adore !!
    I Totally Agree With Goya ..
    This A Beautiful Green Fresh Fig Scent, My Fav Fig Scent I Have Found So Far But Yes There Is A But … The Longevity On The Skin Is Poor For A “Niche /High End /Expensive” Fragrance … Maybe 3 hrs On My Skin At Most, Does Last On Fabric Longer Though.

    Milky sweet fig.

    I keep meaning to review this, but after a few hours pass I forget that I put anything on in the first place (this has short longevity on me). So let me try now that I’ve just applied…
    This scent is ‘front loaded’. I.e., Initial impressions and enjoyment are within the first half hour. And yes, this is very fig dominant. But I like fig; having bought Roxanna Illuminated’s fig scent this is a note I return to.
    Here it is woody and sharp. Maybe too sharp. I was hoping for more sandalwood to come through. which might have happened if the added hesperides were removed from the top notes. An enjoyable scent, but competition is tough for this genry and longevity and depth keep it out of the top spot.

    Fig fig fig. Lovely fresh green fig. A slightly citrus opening. Fresh leaves and some twigs. Not too sweet. A real joy.
