I'm not a fan of Royal Blue inks but this ink is unlike any other Royal Blue named ink. I don't believe the name suites it at all! Most Royal Blues lean slightly purple but this ink leans slightly green; most Royal Blues are somewhat tame and boring (to me) but this is far from tame or boring. This ink is very well lubricated and very wet. It glides out of the pen and puts down a thick line. The ink sheens more than any other ink I have ever seen. Even Diamine Majestic Blue doesn't sheen as much as Organics Studio Nitrogen Royal Blue. But I'll cover sheen more bellow.

The ink fair very well on cheap paper; there is very little feathering on the two types of copy paper I have and and only some bleeding on the very wet Visconti Broad nib. This ink smudges a lot even after leaving the ink for a while. It's similar to Diamine Majestic Blue in this regard; even after it dries it smudges. The ink also magically gets everywhere. If I open the lid and place the lid on the table (wet side up, of course) there is somehow already ink… on my fingers, splashed on the table and on the topside of the lid! How on earth did it get there! After doing these swatches bellow my hands were covered in the ink even though I was being careful!
