Fruity with a pretty color the smell doesn’t have a very strong plum smell, very light

Smooth and even flowing!

I am a fountain pen newbie, so I'm not caught up on the qualities of a great ink yet, but I think this ink writes well! It does smell like plum, but you really only notice that when the ink bottle (or in my case vial, since I bought a sample) is open and you're filling the pen. It writes smoothly and flows well. I've got it in a Pilot Metropolitan with Fine nib and a con-40 converter! The color is a nice dark green.

Loved the subtle scent

Bought a sample and loved the color and subtle smell. Was afraid the smell would be too strong, but not the case at all.

A nice ink!

I was looking for a petrol ink to match my new Lamy Safari Petrol and the De Atramentis Plum was perfect for that purpose. About the fragrance ... I only noticed it in the bottle, it is not noticeable when writing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I fill my fountain pen from an ink sample vial? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

The technique depends on the fountain pen's filling mechanism.

How much writing can I really do with 2ml? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We find that usually you can get 2 good fills for a typical converter with our ink samples, or one good fill with a large capacity piston-filling pen.

How much writing you can do depends on you more than anything else. It mostly depends on how big or small you write, and the nib size you’re using. We recommend experimenting with different nib sizes to find what works best for you.
