AngelaVA Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 A good friend of mine is getting married next year and for her bridal shower she wants some votives as favors. She wants them to be purple, so I am trying to come up with some "purple" scents for her to try. Any suggestions would be great (oh, and she hates lavender, so that's out). I will be getting samples of about 5-10 FOs, make some votives and let her choose what she likes. So far, I have come up with:Blackberry Freesia LovespellVerbena Berry Berrie Buttercream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blondiee Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Hyacinth Chula Orchid from Just Scent - I make my various raspberry candles sort of a pinkish-purple (Vanilla-Raspberry/Raspberry Zinger). I think technically it's called "Orchid"I also get "Clean" from NG and have decided a light purple seems to fit.Purple is my fav. color but I haven't come up with a whole lot of fragrances that smell "purple." I'm not a fan of lavender, either!Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 My picks ... and I'm thinking on this lol cuz we try to have some colored stuff out there too:Freesia (could go a pale a purple)Blackberry musk (think it's BnL)LilacLavender (If she doesn't like it, try it with some vanilla and maybe some jasmine in there)Alyssum (NG)Black orchid (perfumy floral with powder ... check description at Tonys)WildflowersHyacinthHydrangea (if you can find a good one)IrisJapanese Plum (might be more white and pink though, but a light purple might work)Love Spell could work in purpleMoonlight Path maybewisteria I was going to suggest carnation till I saw the meaning of purple carnations Carnation, Purple -- Antipathy and Capriciousness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenniejr Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 I did a wedding last year and the bride wanted her votive favors to be done in purple and I did them in Tulip Bouquet. She loved them and decided to use tulips in the flower arrangements as well. hth:wink2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelaVA Posted January 1, 2006 Author Share Posted January 1, 2006 Wow! Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll be looking for samples of some of these in the classy's, so keep an eye out if you like. I have Hyacinth Chula Orchid and never thought to make that one purple, so that's going on the list. I would also like to try Lilac, Passionate Purple, Satin Sheets, Alyssum, Tulip Bouquet (who sells this?). I really appreciate the suggestions. Thanks!

Scented Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 NG sells the Alyssum and has Satin Sheets too. Well for that matter, I think they have lilac also, but I use Peak's lilac. Can't help on the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 Thanks Scented. I posted an ad in the classy's, so if you want to sell/trade any FOs, let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeana Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I love the Hydrangea Yankee dupe from Royal aromatics. I do this one like a periwinkle purple. Other ones:Raspberry cremeMediteranean FigAphrodesiaCherishI know you have many to try already but I still wanted to add to the list:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dallas_Dean Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I think that there are many FOs that could be purple ( or any other color you want )......like WYW Goddess for instance.....it would be just fine in my opinion if that is what she wants. Same with the "Angel" FOs....and there are hundreds of Angel EVERYTHING! Angel Kisses, Angel Hearts etc etc. You would probably not typically scent these purple, but they would be fine. Go with a blend instead of a single note fragrance than color it any color you want. JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
