Benjamin Moore

Dijon

193 / CC-210

Dijon is a muted yellow with noticeable amber undertones that pull it toward a warm, golden-tan range rather than a bright or saturated yellow. It has an LRV of 54.24, placing it in the mid-reflectance range where it maintains moderate brightness without overwhelming a space. The amber component adds warmth and prevents the yellow from reading as cool or lemony.

Within the Benjamin Moore line, it pairs well with White Sand or Grant Beige for a tonal warm scheme, Chestertown Buff for analogous warmth, and Hale Navy or Dark Olive for contrasting depth.

Dijon 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.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
