Benjamin Moore

Bayleaf

1533

Bayleaf is a dark brown with green undertones that give it an organic cast. Its LRV of 18.24 indicates low reflectance, so it reads deep on walls. Warm light brings out the green-brown undertone more.

It is suitable for studies, dining rooms, or accent walls where a dark neutral is needed. Pair it with White Dove and Grant Beige for balance, and add Saybrook Sage or Hale Navy for contrast.
