Jacques Herbin Scented Inks

These exquisitely charming inks, lightly scented and presented in elegant semi-frosted bottles, are perfect for fountain pens since they are naturally scented and do not contain pigments.

Jacques Herbin is the oldest name in pen inks in the world. He created The Jewel of Inks" in his shop on the Rue des Fossess Saint-Germain in Paris in 1700. Jacques Herbin scented inks are made from floral water (hydrosols) of rose, orange, lavender, apple and violets. The hydrosols used by Jacques Herbin come from Grasse, France, a Provencal town long associated with the perfume industry, and famous for its floral scents. Known as “Les Subtiles” (The Subtle), each ink matches fragrance and color.
