Identifying an Angel's Trumpet

Hi, I just saw a big bush near my house, and when I saw its flowers I thought it could be Brugmansia, aka angel's trumpet. I'm looking at the images of this plant that I found around, and the one i have it's VERY similar. I cut a flower and a leaf to compare them with the pictures, and I can see some differences though. This flower is pinkish-purple and a few minutes after i picked it up, it died. Is there a good possibility that this is the right one? or are there a lot of look alike plants which are not psychoactive? By the way, I live in Chile, I don't know if it's the habitat of this plant. I'll try to post a picture.
thanks in advance, wingo.

Angels trumpet used to be classified as Datura, but then the scientific community agreed upon its actually a brugmansia. It's still refered to as datura by many.

angel's trumpet are common name for datura not burgs around here.
Was the flower hanging down like a bell its a burg.
If it pointing up like a angel would her trumpet it datura. But when burgs flowers are fully open they all point down.
Color of burgs come in every color but blue.

solanaceae are unmistakable, brugmansias are easy to know by their hanging flowers. but i don't know if you would like to take that plant. i would recommend you to read a LOT before trying anyhing wingo! but indeed, a purple flower is not a brugmansia.
remut he lives in chile, there are no daturas there.

Thanks for your replies! I'll check that link. Felixhigh, I am very careful about these subjects, I don't want to try it yet... i just want to identify it, and if it's the right one then i'll do a full research on this drug, as i usually do whn I want to try something new. I've read it's very powerful, a very deep trip. Has anybody ever tried it? Are you sure that a purple flower is not brugmansia? it's light purple, between purple and dark pink.

we would love a picture. is it bushy or like a small tree? there are some pink ones, but they're far away from purple and are usually yellow and pink, when pink. at least in my area. some are straight yellow or white... look for other ones of other colors. can't you be dealing with a _brunfelsia_ species? these are solanaceae and have purple flowers but resemble very little the typical brugs. hope that helps! BTW, do you have trichocereus cacti in chile?

It's bushy. I will take a picture. About the trichocereus cacti, I really don't know. I don't know much about plants nor botanicals. I do know that we have peyote and san pedro. Maybe there is another name for trichocereus?

i think i've seen a purple brugmansia sanguinea picture once but i'm not sure if it was natural or a hybrid... it had the lower part purple and the top white... i though the sanguineas were more from central america/jamaica and surrounding islands but i might be wrong...
