What color is Behr Night Blooming Jasmine?

Behr Night Blooming Jasmine YL-W10 is a very light off-white with a soft creamy-yellow cast that keeps it from reading stark or icy. Its high brightness makes walls feel open and lightly sunlit, while the subtle warmth is especially noticeable beside pure white trim. In north-facing rooms, this shade may appear cleaner and quieter; warmer afternoon light can bring out its gentle ivory character. Use it across living rooms, bedrooms, or hallways when you want a pale backdrop that has more softness than a crisp white. Pair Night Blooming Jasmine with natural oak, linen upholstery, muted sage, clay-toned accents, or warm brass for a grounded, airy interior.

What are Behr Night Blooming Jasmine undertones?

Night Blooming Jasmine is a near-white, very muted cream. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow. 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 Night Blooming Jasmine

Night Blooming Jasmine has an LRV of 92.62% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 92.62%, 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.
