Benjamin Moore

Yellow Roses

353

Yellow Roses (2024-40) by Benjamin Moore is a light-medium yellow with moderate saturation and an LRV of 73.53. The hex #F6E485 places it as a warm, slightly muted yellow with faint gold undertones and no perceptible green or orange lean. It is brighter than a butter yellow but less intense than a cadmium yellow.

Benjamin Moore pairings that work well include Simply White and Chantilly Lace for trim coordination, Hale Navy and Charcoal Slate for contrast, and soft analogous tones from the green and coral ranges of the palette.
