It looks like it will need a very dry pen and good paper for the colour to come out. Thanks, you saved me from an unnecessary purchase!

Is it Diamine Damson?

I don't think so - Damson looks more purple (if anything, Voorhout Violet looks like Damson). Maybe Eclipse? I had samples of both, but sold them and don't have any swabs.

I'd say it reminds me of an Eclipse, which gives it a 5/5. Thanks for this review!

If I'm not wrong about that purple I (imagine?) see in the example, that's pretty much Diamine Eclipse. Only when that ink is spread thinly over a wider surface is its dark purple-black nature more obvious. When concentrated it appears totally black.
