What color is Behr Sweet Jasmine?
Behr Sweet Jasmine M330-3 is a light, muted yellow-beige with a softly earthy cast. Its warm undertones keep it from reading stark, while the restrained saturation gives walls a dry, sun-faded khaki quality rather than a creamy ivory look. In strong daylight, Sweet Jasmine appears pale and gently golden; in lower light, its beige and subtle olive-leaning notes become more noticeable. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a quiet neutral is wanted, especially alongside natural oak, woven linen, aged brass, and off-white trim. Pair it with warm whites, clay browns, or softened olive greens for a grounded palette.

LRV of Sweet Jasmine
Sweet Jasmine has an LRV of 62.29% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 62.29%, 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.
