Benjamin Moore

October Sky

2162-70 / AF-40

October Mist by Benjamin Moore is a muted, mid-tone sage green with soft gray undertones and a slightly silvery cast. With an LRV of 46.54, it provides moderate light reflectance, making it functional in both well-lit open spaces and smaller, lower-light rooms without appearing overly dark. The gray content keeps the green subdued and prevents it from reading as overtly botanical.

It coordinates effectively with Benjamin Moore's Saybrook Sage and Revere Pewter for tonal continuity, while White Dove and Simply White offer clean contrast, and Edgecomb Gray provides a warm neutral bridge in layered wall schemes.
