Benjamin Moore

Mythic

CSP-510

Mythic is a dark purple-gray that merges dusky violet with a cool gray base, resulting in a subdued, low-chroma tone. At an LRV of 12.02, it absorbs most ambient light and reads as a near-neutral dark in dimmer conditions, while the purple becomes more apparent under strong natural light. The gray undertone keeps it from feeling saturated or overtly violet.

It coordinates with Silver Mist or Gray Owl for lighter tonal pairings. Chantilly Lace or White Dove provide necessary brightness on trim, while Hale Navy or Black Beauty build depth in layered dark schemes.
