A little color. A new perspective.
Published Oct 28, 2026
Five colors, endless possibilities. Select a color to copy its HEX.
An elegant fragrance-packaging palette frames pale cyan glass and a garnet bottle with soft violet reflections, a light green refill strip, and crisp near-black instructions.
The feeling
Pale glass, garnet depth, and a restrained green refill cue settle into a violet packaging composition.
Explore this palette ↓Imagine a refillable fragrance bottle resting beside its fluted glass stopper while curved reflections cross a folded carton. Glass Mist describes the clear silhouette, Fragrance Garnet gives the bottle its visual weight, and Violet Reflection spreads the quieter light around both forms. Refill Leaf marks the practical refill step, while Inked Measure keeps the details precise.
Give Violet Reflection 46% of the carton and product-page field. Use Glass Mist across 34% for the bottle silhouette, reflection panels, and spacious information blocks, then assign 20% to Fragrance Garnet for the bottle face and section anchors. Keep Refill Leaf to the refill strip, step marker, or secondary action. Set Inked Measure on Violet Reflection, Glass Mist, and Refill Leaf. Use Glass Mist type on Fragrance Garnet. Place the fragrance name first, follow with the scent-note list, and keep refill steps in a numbered block beside the bottle diagram.
Inked Measure is too dark against Fragrance Garnet for text at either AA size. Pale cyan and green also merge where their shapes meet, and the garnet bottle edge weakens against the violet field. Use the specified outlines instead of relying on spacing. Keep scent notes descriptive, label the refill action in words, and present the steps in reading order.
A considered balance
Apply Violet Reflection to 46% of the packaging and product-page field, Glass Mist to 34% of bottle silhouettes and information panels, and Fragrance Garnet to 20% of bottle faces and section anchors. Use Inked Measure on Violet Reflection at 5.05:1, Glass Mist at 13.30:1, and Refill Leaf at 11.67:1; all pass normal and large AA. Use Glass Mist on Fragrance Garnet at 7.17:1, passing normal and large AAA. Reserve Refill Leaf for refill steps or a secondary action. Use Inked Measure outlines around pale cyan and green forms; use the specified two-color edge where garnet meets violet.
Start with a generous background, introduce your primary color, then use the highlight sparingly. The ratios are a guide for large surfaces, not a fixed recipe.

Focal areas & key details
Background · Primary · Highlight. Use text and accent colors where their roles call for them.
Recommended text on highlight
The original text has low contrast (1.85:1). This example uses Glass Mist (#BFE5E1) from the same palette instead of #17161A on #7A2638, improving contrast to 7.17:1. This meets WCAG AA for normal text.
Contrast is calculated for these specific pairs. Large text means at least 24 px regular or about 18.7 px bold. Check every pairing in your final design.

[Color guide — coloring.today / refill-beside-the-fluted-stopper] Apply this palette to the design requested above. Preserve the requested layout, content, and interactions. If an explicit requirement conflicts with this color guide, identify the conflict instead of silently overriding it. Text: Inked Measure #17161A Primary: Glass Mist #BFE5E1 Highlight: Fragrance Garnet #7A2638 Accent: Refill Leaf #BFD8A8 Background: Violet Reflection #9B7DA8 Mood: Pale glass, garnet depth, and a restrained green refill cue settle into a violet packaging composition. Suggested uses: Beauty packaging Application note: Apply Violet Reflection to 46% of the packaging and product-page field, Glass Mist to 34% of bottle silhouettes and information panels, and Fragrance Garnet to 20% of bottle faces and section anchors. Use Inked Measure on Violet Reflection at 5.05:1, Glass Mist at 13.30:1, and Refill Leaf at 11.67:1; all pass normal and large AA. Use Glass Mist on Fragrance Garnet at 7.17:1, passing normal and large AAA. Reserve Refill Leaf for refill steps or a secondary action. Use Inked Measure outlines around pale cyan and green forms; use the specified two-color edge where garnet meets violet. Avoid: Inked Measure on Fragrance Garnet is 1.85:1 and fails both normal- and large-text AA thresholds. Use Glass Mist on Fragrance Garnet at 7.17:1, passing normal and large AAA. Glass Mist against Refill Leaf is 1.14:1, against Violet Reflection 2.63:1, and Refill Leaf against Violet Reflection 2.31:1; each fails the 3:1 non-text threshold. A 2 px Inked Measure outline contrasts 13.30:1 with Glass Mist, 11.67:1 with Refill Leaf, and 5.05:1 with Violet Reflection. Fragrance Garnet against Violet Reflection is 2.73:1; separate that boundary with a double edge: 2 px Glass Mist beside Fragrance Garnet at 7.17:1 and 1 px Inked Measure beside Violet Reflection at 5.05:1. Use approximately 46% background, 34% primary, and 20% highlight across large surfaces. These ratios are a starting point, not a rigid rule. Use text and accent colors according to their roles. Keep the original HEX values. Choose readable text/background pairings without silently changing the palette. Do not introduce unrelated colors.

Background is the canvas, text is readable copy, primary is a key surface, highlight draws attention, and accent adds small secondary details.

Text/background contrast: 5.05:1. This is one measured pair, not a guarantee for the whole palette. Check every actual text/background pairing against WCAG AA. Prefer readable combinations from the original colors, keep visible keyboard focus, and never communicate state through color alone. If no original pairing meets the requirement, propose a separately labeled derived color with its original HEX, proposed HEX, purpose and measured contrast. Never overwrite the source palette.
This guide preserves the original HEX values. Review the output before using it.
