Choward's Violet Mints Candy | Bold Aromatic Flavor | Perfect for Snacks in Lunchboxes, Travel, Sharing, and Gifting | Nostalgic Vintage Candy | 3 Pack (15 Mints Per Package)

Do you love Mad Men? Do you love the scent of violets? Do you want your mouth to taste and feel like heaven? If so, these lovely old fashioned candy mints are for you. A taste of nostaglia will transport you back in time to the olden days, when candy was fancy and unique. The lovely violet scent fills your senses as you open the beautiful purple and silver foil pack and your breath will smell amazing as you lets these disolve in your lucky mouth. Some comments I've heard is, "These are kind of chalky", and "Tastes like soap". Which I suppose is the opinion of those with no discernable taste, because these really are amazing. For the price, it is not really a risk to try them. Great for stocking stuffers at Christmas time.

I was glad I found these. I had no idea they still made these. Very unusual, and not for everyone, but I love them.

Great flavor and def great to have after a garlic infused dinner or if you're a smoker;-)

I bought some of these candies awhile back and really liked them. I used to see them at "penny candy" stores years ago and about forgot the name of them. It wasn't until I looked up the name and then saw them sold on Amazon, that I had to get them again. They're a hard candy, small square shaped and purple in color. The flavor is really different but special. It's suppose to taste like the the actual flower essence of violets. I think it does.! I thought at first that maybe "Violets" is just a name for candy because of the purple color but flavored with Lavender(another flower used in desserts, also). Unfortunately, the flavoring is artificial according to the label, otherwise tastes great.! I maybe order some more again one day.

Love these

If I could give these minus stars I would. They taste nothing like violets.they smell great but to me tastes like bad bug spray smells.

So like most others are saying, it definitely has that soapy perfume like flavor that people are talking about. It has a background sweetness that comes out after sucking on it for a minute. It's definitely a floral like flavor. My dad and I like them well enough and will eat the 3 packs that we bought. My co-workers however felt like they didn't hate it, but wouldn't eat one again if given a choice. They would never go out and buy this themselves. I don't really see myself paying what I did to buy these again. If I did, it would be a while from now. If these were like .89 cents a pack then maybe I'd buy one on a miscellaneous day.

One of my old time favorite.😍
