Benjamin Moore

Amaryllis

1256

Amaryllis by Benjamin Moore is a muted dusty blush with soft red and pink undertones. It has an LRV of 36.76, placing it in the mid-range, so it neither dominates a room with darkness nor washes out in strong light. It reads as a warm neutral-pink and works well in bedrooms, living rooms, or powder rooms.

It coordinates naturally with other Benjamin Moore colors including White Dove, Revere Pewter, Hale Navy, Pink Damask, and Manchester Tan, making it straightforward to build a cohesive warm palette around it.
