Benjamin Moore

Nature Lover

CC-726 / 473

Benjamin Moore Nature Lover (CC-726) is a medium-depth green with warm undertones that push it toward sage rather than toward cooler, blue-based greens. With an LRV of 38.79, it absorbs more light than it reflects, giving it a grounded, mid-tone presence on walls. The warm base keeps the color from feeling stark.

Oxford White (CC-30) and Swiss Coffee (OC-45) provide lighter foils, while Caldwell Green (HC-124) deepens the green direction for adjacent accents. Whirlpool (CC-910) introduces a contrasting cool note, and Cushing Green (HC-125) offers a darker, more muted green companion.
