What color is Benjamin Moore Cognac Snifter?

Benjamin Moore Cognac Snifter 1148 is a medium-depth warm brown with a clear caramel-orange cast. Its sunbaked, earthy character keeps it from reading flat, giving walls more presence than a standard beige or tan. In bright daylight, Cognac Snifter can show its golden warmth, while lower or cooler light may bring out a more subdued brown base. It suits dining rooms, studies, entryways, or accent walls where a grounded, enveloping color is welcome. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, charcoal accents, aged brass, and natural wood for a layered, material-rich look.

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 26.78%, 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.
