Benjamin Moore

Yellow Tone

370

Yellow Tone (2028-40) by Benjamin Moore is a medium-saturation yellow-green with an LRV of 58.73, placing it in the moderate reflectance range. The hex #E2D06D shows a warm yellow base with a definite green undertone, giving it a chartreuse-adjacent character distinct from pure yellows. It reads as a yellow with olive influence rather than a true green.

Same-brand pairings include Soft Fern and Pale Avocado for analogous green coordination, Hale Navy and Hunter Green for contrast, and White Dove and Classic Gray as grounding neutrals.
