What color is Dulux Ash Rose?

Dulux Ash Rose 99RR 42/216 is a mid-tone muted pink with a clear rosy cast and a softly softened, slightly dusty appearance. Its red-pink base gives it gentle warmth, while the restrained saturation keeps it from reading like a sugary pastel. In south-facing or warm artificial light, Ash Rose can look fuller and more peach-rose; cooler daylight may bring out its quieter, greyed pink side. It suits bedroom walls, a reading nook, or a dining room where a little color is wanted without overwhelming the furnishings. Pair it with chalky off-whites, warm taupe, mushroom grey, and natural oak, or use dark bronze and black accents for definition.
