Ink Shot Review: J. Herbin Poussière de Lune @KnightsWritingC

Thanks to Knights Writing Co. (a Canadian webshop!) for sending this ink for a review!

ABOUT

Color: Purple
Bottle: 30 ml
Price: $14.00 CAD
Where to buy: Knights Writing Co.

PROS

• Beautiful shading.
• A romantic, gorgeous color.
• Cute labels and bottles.
• Easy to clean.
• Legible in fine, dry nibs as well as wet, broader nibs.

CONS

• Mouth of the bottle is a little narrow so sometimes I have issues filling larger pens.
• Sometimes feathery on paper that isn't very fountain pen friendly.
• A little dry.

OVERALL

Poussière de Lune is a dusty purple that is irresistible. It's such a mysterious and romantic color that I cannot help but keep a bottle in stock at all times. I love the name, too! Another one of my top favorite inks from J. Herbin.





I received this item free of charge for the purposes of this review. I was not compensated monetarily for my review. Everything you've read here is my own opinion.
