Herbes de Provence

V060-5

Herbes de Provence is a deep muted olive with a yellow-green base. It feels herbal, not bright. Use it for built-ins, a mudroom wall, or lower cabinets when sage feels too pale.

The color needs decent lighting because its LRV sits around 31. In shade, it can look browner and more subdued. Pair with warm limestone or aged brass. A clean white wall nearby will help the green stay legible.
