Benjamin Moore

Angelica

AF-665

Angelica by Benjamin Moore is a pale gray with a subtle lavender undertone that gives it a slightly cool, muted character. At an LRV of 61.82 it reflects a good amount of light, making it functional in bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways of varying sizes. The lavender note is restrained enough that it reads as a neutral in most lighting conditions.

It pairs cleanly with other Benjamin Moore colors including White Dove, Gray Owl, Chelsea Gray, Hale Navy, and Soft Fern across both warm and cool palettes.
