Nemosine isn’t a brand I have come across too many times in the FP world. The first and only time was a Nemosine Singularity fountain pen when I first started with FPs. It was a great pen, but I “outgrew” it in the way that many people do with their first pens.
So when I heard that they had inks I was intrigued! Nemosine released inks that were named for outer space ^_^. I ordered three of these inks directly through Nemosine and received a free starter fountain pen with the purchase. Alpha Centauri was the first one I decided to try because well…purple!
For this review I decided to ink up my neglected Pilot VP Galaxy ^_^ Seemed a fitting choice given the ink name.

Ink Swab with comparison to Lamy Dark Lilac:
Time-Lapse:
This ink is a beautifully saturated purple with some shading and sheen on TR paper. I did get sheen during normal writing as well, but I would not say as much as I usually get with Lamy Dark Lilac. I am impressed with this ink so far and wouldn’t hesitate to have another bottle on hand. Can’t ever have too many purple inks right?
Until next time I leave you with a photo of our youngest puppy all nice and clean! Didn’t last long though…

It looks really good. I’ll have to get a couple of bottles … I’ve been meaning to get a blue one, but I was distracted or something. The pen in the picture — was that the one you got?

No that was not the free pen, that was my first Nemosine 😀

Yeah I’m not sure what happened! I bought these a while back though, maybe they are only available through retailers now? Either way, great inks!

I’ve really enjoyed many of the new Nemosine Inks. You also need to try their purple Halley’s Comet Purple. When I swatched all of them, that’s the one that made me think of you. Nice review of this one, btw!

That looks to be a lovely purple. Every time you feature that Pilot VP Galaxy I completely ogle it. It’s a stunner.
