Or is it too 'candle scent'?

Well, it's the wrong season, if you're in UK - they bloom very late winter and spring.

So putting the name with autumn just seems a bit horticulturally ignorant (sorry)

Viola?

I read it as Violent Autumn Confused

I thought it was something about lots of storms this september/october Confused

Violent Autumn sounds like a lipstick colour

I also read it as Violent Autumn , I'm not keen on Violet at all and they don't flow well as a pair .

Also read Violent Autumn. I think Viola would fit better. Beautiful names just maybe not together!

I love Violet but not so keen on Autumn and don't think they go well together (scented candle is a perfect description!).

What about Autumn Violet? Seems to flow better...

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 24/11/2016 20:26

It is a bit 'candle' tbh. Love Violet but not fond of Autumn.

MistressMolecules · 24/11/2016 21:18

I think that is a beautiful name! Really like it a lot actually though would never have thought of putting them together I think it works!

Sophronia · 24/11/2016 21:49

They're not good together

You definitely can, though I personally find it a bit "wordy". I had a giggle at your scented candle description too .
