Valspar

Enchanted Evening

4003-8A

Enchanted Evening is a medium-deep blue with a muted violet-gray cast. It has a denim quality. Bedroom walls, office shelving, or a painted dresser can take it without becoming too bright.

Its depth needs trim contrast and decent daylight. Warm brass can bring out richness. Natural linen makes the color feel calmer and less polished. Sample it vertically, not flat.

Enchanted Evening in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
