What color is Benjamin Moore Ambrosia?

Benjamin Moore Ambrosia 893 is a very light, warm off-white with a soft peach-pink cast. Its low saturation keeps the color airy and subtle, reading more like a creamy neutral than a noticeable pastel on broad walls. In bright daylight, Ambrosia can appear nearly ivory with a blush warmth, while evening lighting tends to bring out its peachier side. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and living spaces where stark white would feel too crisp. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, terracotta pottery, or muted sage accents for an earthy, gently layered palette.

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 81.88%, 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.
