Carboxyhaemoglobin (carbon dioxide rich blood) is a red-purple colour.
Oxyhaemoglobin (Oxygen rich blood ) is deep red
Carbonmonoxyhaemoglobin (Blood containing carbon monoxide) is bright red
Aside: Some people think some blood is blue because veins (containing CO2 rich blood) appear blue. This is due to the colour of the veins and the colur absorption of the tissues. Octopi and horseshoe crabs do have blue blood because they use copper, not iron, to transport oxygen.
