INK REVIEW: De Atramentis Hyacinth

I'll just blurt it out:  I don't love this ink.  I don't even like it.

The color is nice enough, I suppose.

It's a smeary hot mess, though.  (Can't believe I missed dotting an i - that's not like me!)

One of the worst things, though, about De Atramentis Hyacinth?  It stinks. I don't mind a lightly perfumed ink, but this is just too much for me. It's a sickening sweet smell that tends to linger.
