BOUQUET D'ANTAN

Am unsure if I like the
smell of yesteryear. Too
much reminder of mould,
of dust that you can't get
rid of. But now someone
has brought it back as a
fountain pen ink whose
color is magenta, & seems
unable to do anything more
than make your writing look
prettier on the page, much like
its stablemates, BOUTON D'
OR or KYANITE DU NEPAL.
