Are you talking 104 COE?
I have very little CIM but I hear they have some good ones. Double Helix purple transparent is lovely, and I also like Effetre violets (light and dark).
Opaque - my favorite of those I have tried would be the Reichenbach Purple Rose or Lilac (Maybe it is called Lilac Red?) but I don't think they are in stock right now in lampwork cane. You could probably get a bar of 96 and pull it down if you use 96.

Effetre 254 Evil Devitrifying Purple (EDP) Opaque
Long ago discontinued in the original formula.
Any of the 104 transparent lavenders are a fav for me.

For boro artists, that royal jelly and gold amethyst from molten aura are killer transparent purples!

For me it's another vote for CiM Lapis and for the transparent it's either Trapeze or Effetre dark violet
