Victorious Vela violet

Latin victōriōsus, of victory — derived from victor (winner). As a color modifier, victorious implies a saturated-and-celebratory-and-conquering quality, the deep-rich color of Roman-Imperial victory-procession purpura-dyed paludamentum cloak. Sits at the bold-and-celebratory end of the grid, parallel to triumphant and conquering.

Latin vela, sails-of-the-Argo. As a color modifier, vela implies a southern-hemisphere-and-Argo-sail-and-supernova-remnant quality, the visual register of Vela-supernova-remnant-and-Argo-sails hand-southern-hemisphere-and-Argo-sail-and-supernova-remnant Vela-supernova-remnant-and-Argo-sails-and-southern-Milky-Way vela-and-southern-hemisphere-and-Argo-sail surfaces under Vela-supernova-remnant-and-Argo-sails-and-southern-Milky-Way Southern-Cross-and-southern-zenith southern-stellar-light. Sits at the modifier-and-cosmic end of the grid, parallel to cygnus and draco in usage.

Viola odorata, the European sweet violet — small, fragrant, and the original meaning of the color name in English (the Violet of the rainbow). The color refers to a fresh sweet violet blossom in late winter: a saturated, slightly red-shifted deep blue-purple with the matte finish of small five-petaled flower. Cooler than amethyst, warmer than indigo, with the perfumed weight of a flower used in Roman garlands and Victorian eau de toilette.
