Clematis (hex #7E6596) is a medium-depth purple with a cool undertone, registering an LRV of 16, which places it in the darker portion of the reflectance scale. It absorbs a significant share of ambient light, producing a saturated presence on any surface. The hue leans toward true violet without shifting noticeably toward blue or red.
