Taste is very subjective. It's about the manifestation of taste. You might like the feel of a silver plated, rhodium-coated Varius carbon Caran d'Arche. You might love the graceful swirls and curves it can produce. With brown ink from Montblanc.
Or you could be the guy that walks into meetings, waits until everyone is settled before opening a leather-bound, monogrammed notebook, pulls that same pen out, put elbows on table and slowly unscrews the cap, before setting the pen down on the notepad, without having written a word.
Extrinsic vs. intrinsic.
