Benjamin Moore

Opulence

879 / OC-69

Opulence by Benjamin Moore is a near-white with a faint pink undertone that softens its overall appearance compared to stark, blue-toned whites. At an LRV of 87.67, it is among the brightest available options, reflecting most incident light and helping to maximize the sense of openness in a room. It suits kitchens, ceilings, trim work, and living rooms where high reflectance is needed but a completely clinical white is undesirable.

Opulence coordinates with Benjamin Moore's White Dove, Simply White, Kendall Charcoal, Hale Navy, and Pale Oak, functioning as a clean backdrop against both deep and mid-toned companions.

Opulence 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.
