I am obsessed with this chair! I was hesitant to order after reading the other reviews that said it was lavender. It is not lavender, it is exactly mauve as the title states.  If you are expecting a blush pink, it is not blush pink. It is spot on mauve  and exactly what I was hoping for. I did not want a pink chair or a purple chair, and this is a beautiful, soft blend of both.  I gave it four stars instead of five because the smell is so strong. It has been several days and it is still just as strong. I have had a candle going in that room almost constantly to see if that helps. So far it has not. Hoping this goes away over time! Gorgeous chair!
