Comparison Swabs:

Cosy Up is less saturated and lighter than Diamine Tulip.

Deck the Halls is closest to Diamine Mystique.

Celebration is closest to Diamine Pink Champagne.

One More Sleep is lighter than Diamine Night Shade.

Best Wishes is darker than Diamine Serendipity.

All the inks had an average flow except One More Sleep, which had a slightly dry flow.

Overall, One More Sleep is probably my favorite out of the five. It has some nice shading and is a lovely blue color.
