What color is Benjamin Moore Burgundy Rose?
Benjamin Moore Burgundy Rose 1280 is a muted medium rose with a gently earthy cast, sitting between dusty pink and softened red. Its low-key saturation keeps it from reading overly sweet, giving walls a grounded wash of color rather than a bright floral effect. In strong daylight, the rosy red character is clearer, while evening light can bring out its quieter, slightly browned depth. It suits powder rooms, bedrooms, dining areas, or a painted vanity, especially alongside warm white trim, walnut, aged brass, and natural linen. For contrast, pair Burgundy Rose with deep charcoal, forest green, or a softened blue-gray.

LRV of Burgundy Rose
Burgundy Rose has an LRV of 23.41% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 23.41%, 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.
