Alongside the Berlin ink manufactory von Blythen, Franz-Josef Jansen (tintenonline.de) has been offering scented inks with good flow properties for years; especially the Lavender Blue scented ink is described as excellent and is even suitable for elaborate skeleton pens. Collectors report positively about the variants Fir Green with and without lemon (discreet scent, very good flow in Montblanc 146 and 144) and about fine bakelite screw caps and safe packaging; value for money is regarded as very good. Anyone wanting to move away from monotone black or royal blue finds in scented inks a sensual extension of letter writing (addressing the sense of smell).
