Ink Review #602: Tono & Lims Cigar

Today I will be reviewing Tono & Lims Cigar, a special edition ink from their Adult Night line. This ink is scented and smells like cigars.

This ink had high shading and no sheen. The color is a medium yellow-brown.

This ink had average saturation and a wet flow. I would say that the scent is slightly sweet (like sugar), but not smoky.

Overall: I was quite pleased with this ink. The scent wasn’t overpowering and I liked the shading. I tend to like warmer browns so I won’t be purchasing a full bottle.
