Crème de Menthe

8003-28A

Creme de Menthe is a pale yellowed off-white with the faintest green cast. White tile can reveal the soft green tucked under the cream. Creme de Menthe works in kitchens, utility rooms, and sunrooms that need a clean but warmer wall color.

True white shows the cream. Natural wood and muted sage help the undertone make sense. Give it a full day of changing light.
