There are a few options you can do:

Some folks have used the stock C84 black with the MIS "colors".  I don't 
think it is as archival, though.
You can mix and match between warm and neutral "colors" to get the amount 
of warmness you want.  If you just put a warm yellow into the neutral mix, 
you get slightly warm.  If you add cyan or magenta, you get warmer.

Eboni is for matte.  They also sell one for gloss.   The "color" inks are 
for both matte and gloss.
