Benjamin Moore

Mediterranean Breeze

799

Mediterranean Breeze is a light powder blue with soft gray undertones that keep it from reading as overtly saturated. With an LRV of 62.31, it reflects a significant amount of light, placing it in the upper-mid range where it can function almost as a tinted neutral. The gray undertone tempers the blue, giving the color a dusty, muted quality rather than a primary-blue intensity.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore White Heron (OC-57) and Distant Gray (OC-68) for clean, light backdrops, Sequoia (1245) for warm contrast, and Pale Celery (OC-116) for a subtle complementary shift.
