Benjamin Moore

Vapor

AF-35

Vapor is an off-white from Benjamin Moore with muted cream undertones that give it a faintly warm lean. At an LRV of 81.6, it reflects a high percentage of light and functions well as a near-white for walls, trim, or ceilings. The cream component is restrained enough that the color does not read overtly yellow in most lighting conditions.

It pairs naturally with Classic Gray, Swiss Coffee, and White Dove in a close-value neutral grouping. Kendall Charcoal and Hale Navy offer strong dark contrast, while Seafoam Green provides a soft chromatic accent.

Vapor 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.
