Benjamin Moore

Scarecrow

1041 / CC-332

Scarecrow is a golden brown built on strong amber undertones that give it a distinctly warm, toasted quality. With an LRV of 28.51, it sits in the lower-mid range and will deepen visibly in spaces with less natural light. The amber base reads clearly across lighting conditions, though it mellows slightly under cool daylight.

Natural Linen and Lenox Tan make harmonious warm-neutral companions, while Newburg Green and Hale Navy offer contrasting depth. White Dove serves as a clean, bright trim option that sharpens its golden warmth without competing.

Scarecrow in Different Light
