Benjamin Moore

Whisper Violet

2070-70

Whisper Violet (2070-70) is a very light purple from Benjamin Moore with cool violet undertones confirmed by the hex value #E5E5ED, where the blue channel leads slightly. Its LRV of 76.77 places it among the higher-reflectance tinted colors, reading as an off-white with a lavender cast in most lighting conditions. The violet character becomes more apparent when placed adjacent to pure whites or warm neutrals.

Benjamin Moore pairings that work in coordination include Classic Gray, White Dove, Hale Navy, Silver Mist, and Kendall Charcoal for range from trim whites to deep accents.
