Benjamin Moore

Citrine

AF-370

Citrine is a golden yellow with an earthy undertone and moderate saturation. Its LRV of 40.53 gives it mid-level brightness without reading too light. It works in dining rooms, kitchens, or hallways where a warm yellow is appropriate.

Swiss Coffee and Fairview Taupe soften the palette and keep it grounded. Van Deusen Blue and Hunter Green provide contrasting depth within the same brand range.

Citrine in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
