What color is Benjamin Moore Apricot Chiffon?
Benjamin Moore Apricot Chiffon 136 is a light, warm peach with a creamy yellow cast that keeps it soft rather than sugary. Its pale value gives walls a gently sunlit look, especially in bedrooms, breakfast nooks, or a powder room that needs more warmth than a neutral white can offer. In bright daylight, Apricot Chiffon reads as a clean apricot-cream, while lower or warmer lighting can draw out its richer peach notes. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven cane, and muted clay or terracotta accents for a layered palette. For contrast, deep olive green or a softened blue-gray can give this color more definition without making the room feel stark.

LRV of Apricot Chiffon
Apricot Chiffon has an LRV of 66.83% 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 66.83%, 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.
