The distinct smell of dark blue felt tips, often likened to salt and vinegar, is primarily due to the specific dyes and solvents used in their formulation. These chemicals can emit volatile organic compounds that produce a scent reminiscent of vinegar. Additionally, the combination of certain pigments and additives may create a unique olfactory profile that some users associate with that familiar smell. It's a byproduct of the materials rather than a deliberate design choice.
