What color is Dulux Spiced Honey?
Dulux Spiced Honey 00YY 26/220 is a muted, mid-depth brown with a clear warm, golden-beige cast. Its earthy character keeps it from reading too orange, giving walls a grounded look that suits living rooms, dining areas, and hallways. In bright daylight, this color can appear lighter and more honeyed, while lower or cooler light draws out its deeper brown side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm clay tones, aged brass, oak, and natural linen for a layered scheme. It also has enough depth to define cabinetry or a feature wall without making the finish feel overly dark.

What are Dulux Spiced Honey undertones?
Spiced Honey is a midtone, soft caramel orange. The HEX sample leans orange; this describes its measurable digital hue direction, not a hidden paint pigment. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Spiced Honey
Spiced Honey has an LRV of 24.38% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 24.38%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
