Inky T O D - Color Swatches - Brown - Please Post Your Pictures And Tell Us Your Thoughts

I did a search to see if there were comments/reviews on the J. Herbin Encre Brune Parfum Cacao ink, and I didn't see anything posted. Did I miss it?

I just got a bottle, and it's a really warm, rich shade of cocoa brown, and the ink is fairly saturated —UNlike the other scented inks by J. Herbin, such as Ambre and Violette—. The chocolate scent is very pleasant, as well.

As the closeup may show (I'm not the greatest photographer!), there is some "shine" to the ink when the ink is heavy on TR paper. No different colored sheen, but a glint of shine, if that makes sense:

I'm not sure I fancy scented ink, but that's a nice shade of brown - not too reddish.

It looks wonderful in the Pelikan.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Especially with an older OM nib that I grabbed from a pen that had seen better days... ;)

This CRV is one of my favorites. Alas, I did not create the lovely trees you see in my current avatar.
