Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Date Casual

With its long-lasting, strong projection and unconventional profile, Tank Battle is too potent and distracting for an office or formal setting. It truly shines for casual outings or dates where its unique, bold character can be appreciated without overwhelming a confined space.

About

Tank Battle opens with a startling, almost industrial bubblegum blast, sugary and sweet, quickly juxtaposed with a metallic tang. This initial shock soon gives way to a complex heart where fiery clove and deep, earthy patchouli emerge, creating a rich, spiced accord. As it settles, a damp, almost mildewy labdanum adds a mysterious depth, bringing to mind wet earth and abandoned spaces, with hints of industrial grime lingering beneath the persistent, sweet bubblegum.
