What color is Benjamin Moore Amazon Soil?
Benjamin Moore Amazon Soil 2115-30 is a deep, muted brown with a noticeable dusty rose cast. Its low saturation keeps the color grounded rather than overtly red, while the slight coolness in the mauve-brown undertone prevents it from reading as a standard warm chocolate. In bright daylight, it can show more of its softened berry-gray character; under warm lamps, it tends to appear richer and earthier. Use it on a dining room wall, a powder room, or painted cabinetry where its depth can anchor pale stone, creamy off-whites, and aged brass. Natural oak, walnut, linen, and charcoal accents give this shade a layered, collected look.

LRV of Amazon Soil
Amazon Soil has an LRV of 13.3% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 13.3%, 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.
