Benjamin Moore

Olive Tree

392

Olive Tree by Benjamin Moore is a rich olive green defined by its golden undertones, which push the hue toward a warm, saturated yellow-green. With an LRV of 34.85, it sits in the moderate range, offering enough depth to serve as a focal color without overwhelming a space. It functions well in living rooms, kitchens, and studies where a connection to natural tones is desirable.

For coordinated schemes, it works alongside Benjamin Moore's White Dove, Linen White, Hale Navy, Soft Fern, and Saybrook Sage, supporting both contrast-driven and tonal approaches.

Olive Tree 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.
