Technical characteristics of J. Herbin Parfumées scented inks

J. Herbin Parfumées scented inks are formulated with water-based and integrated scented essences. They flow smoothly and evenly on common paper and letter paper. They are acid-free, so they do not damage nibs over time. The formula is also compatible with converters and piston systems.

The 10 ml bottle is ideal for those who want to try more colors or frequently switch between fragrances; the 30 ml bottle is the choice for more continuous use. To learn more about the characteristics of fountain pen inks, consult the ink page on Wikipedia.

FAQ

Do J. Herbin Parfumées scented inks really smell?

Yes. Each color contains floral or fruity essences that scent the paper during and after writing. The scent is noticeable on the paper for several hours after application.

Are they compatible with all fountain pens?

Yes. The water-based formula is compatible with any fountain pen that uses standard cartridges or converters. It does not contain acids or solid pigments that could clog the nib or feed.

How do I choose the right color and scent?

The choice depends on the mood and writing context. Lavender and Violet are cool tones suitable for formal correspondence; Lemon and Orange are more vibrant and suitable for personal notes and journaling. Cocoa also naturally pairs with those who already use brown inks or write on ivory paper.

How should scented inks be stored?

Store upright away from heat sources and direct light. Always close the cap after use to preserve the scent and, consequently, prevent the evaporation of the essences.
