Benjamin Moore

Parisian Red®

CSP-1170

Parisian Red® is a deep red with noticeable brown undertones that reduce sharpness and add density. With an LRV of 8.95, it absorbs most light and reads as a dark, saturated color. It performs best as an accent or on limited wall areas such as dining rooms, libraries, or studies.

The undertone keeps it grounded rather than bright, even under strong lighting. It pairs well with Benjamin Moore Lodge Red and Chocolate Candy Brown for tonal depth, while Chantilly Lace or Gray Owl introduce contrast without cooling the red excessively.
