PURPLE!

[judas_kiss]

Tum is very much a deep, dark purple, tinged with gold.

At the risk of sounding perfectly ignorant...what is "Tum"?

[Sara]

Kali definitely had a purple feel to it for me. I can't really think of any others off the top of my head..sorry.

Thanks so much, I tried to search the lab, but for some reason, the search engine wouldn't work for me today.

[oakmoss]

Morgause, definitely. Rich royal velvety purple.....

[Laurel the Woodfairy]

Grab some Gypsy Queen before it's gone--it "feels" much like Queen of Spades to me. They both just feel very purple and regal and feminine.

 

And it sounds like Beatrice was made for you, so get her while she's here, too: in the story, she is associated with a certain *purple* flower, and I'll just bet the "rich blossoms and spicy perfumes" capture that.

[joseybird]

Snake Charmer and Gypsy Queen

[Epouvantail]

Purple is my color, so I'm trying to find purple scents.

 

I think some purple!scents are:

 

Morgause

Lurid

Ultraviolet

 

What do YOU guys think, oh masters of the nose?

[fallow deer]

Definately Morgause.

 

Also

 

Sybaris

Gypsy Queen

Sleepy Moon

Sophia

King and Queen of Spades

 

although people's scent perceptions vary.

[Little Bird]

Sahasrara is very purple to me. Somehow purple-sweet-incense. Phantom Queen also gave off a purple vibe to me. I'm not sure why some scents paint such vivid color pictures when I smell them though.

[Fyre_in_Winter]

Forgive me, I'm an artist and a Vrigo, so I'm going to be a little analytical. And of course these are only my own perceptions.

 

Lavender/ Blue Violet Scents:Somnus, Tisiphone

Violet Scents: Intrigue, Queen of Spades, Spellbound

Dark Purple/ Red Violet Scents: Bewitched, Montresor, Queen of Clubs, Wanda

Fuscia/ Magenta Scents: Bordello

[ayelienne]

Samhain 2005 always feels a wonderful shade of purple to me.

[Medici]

Lady Macbeth. The purplest of purple.

 

And Midnight and Nocturne (GC, not TAL.)

[Cielamara]

I feel like Suspiro is a mottled purple and creamy white...deep bruise-purple, plum-colored.

[Celogrl]

Well, I guess this is an obvious- but I have searched BPAL for the perfect winey, purpley scent and the lab has definitely captured in Purple Phoenix. It's just gorgeous, it's purple magnified!

[penemuel]

Black Ice seems purple-ish to me, and I have absolutely no idea why

[alliekat13]

Shadow Witch Orchid, Oya, and High John the Conqueror definetely have purple vibes to me.

[theseagrows]

glasgow, morgause, queen gertrude, faith and regan are pale purple.

shadow witch orchid, black lily (blackish-purple), wanda (burgundy), and purple phoenix are dark purple to me.

The Raven, Nocturne and Le Serpent Qui Danse encapsulate purpleness itself to me.

It's so interesting how some of us see some scents as different colors. Lady Macbeth - new and aged - was always a deep deep red for me, and Samhain '05 was a rich brown to me.

 

There's only one scent that asserted itself as purple to me - Numb. I remember in my review that I couldn't identify the floral in it, but that I new it was purple (others with better noses picked it out as violet).

[Holly]

Velvet seemed very purple and gold to me...interesting thread

[GypsyRoseRed]

This is so interesting! A lot of people have mentioned blends I never would have associated with purple. IMHO, I always think that King of Spades, Voodoo Queen, Bordello and The Raven are purple scents. Oh, and Purple Phoenix of course.

[flco]

The Hermit. It's a Tarot blend and someone in the review thread says it reminds him or her of a wizard in a purple robe. I completely agree.

[MichelleM]

Frumious Bandersnatch and Titania are the oils that I most associate with purple.

[icing]

Bathsheba, Centzon Totochtin , Horreur Sympathique, King Cobra, Kitsune-Tsuki, Medea, Regan, Skuld, Snake Charmer, and Temple Viper were all very purple on me.

Freak Show was more of a reddish purple, and Eat Me could be purple, but I think of it as a cheery red.

…and Blood Countess would probably be another candidate for the purple world… as would Voodoo Lily?

 

E.T.A.: "Faith is sugared violet."
