What color is Benjamin Moore French Macaroon?

Benjamin Moore French Macaroon CSP-335 is a pale, softly warmed off-white with a gentle beige cast. Its #EAE1D0 value reads light and low in saturation, giving walls a creamy, muted appearance rather than a crisp white finish. In bright daylight, it can look airy and lightly sand-toned; under warmer evening lighting, its beige warmth becomes more noticeable. French Macaroon suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a quiet neutral backdrop is wanted without the sharpness of pure white. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, brushed brass, and deeper taupe or clay accents for a layered interior.

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 73.91%, 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.
