4. Violet / Purple is the hardest color for the eye to
discriminate. That's because it has the shortest
wavelength in the light spectrum. The next
shortest wavelength is Ultraviolet which is
invisible to the naked eye. Even people who
work with color daily and are finely tuned to
their nuances find it difficult to tell a Red /
Violet from a Blue / Violet at times.
5. Men are generally more attracted
to darker, rich Violets which lean
toward Blue. On the other hand,
when red or lots of white is added

Lavender or Mauve Pastel,
the effect is ultra-feminine. The
meanings of violet can be quite
different depending on whether
they lean toward blue or red.

of violet can be polar opposites
depending upon the strength of
either the Red or Blue. You may
want to clearly emphasize either
the cool side or warm side of this
hue. In other words, stress the cool
with more blue or warm with more
red. The ambiguous middle can
create a sense of unrest or unease
when it's the dominant color.
