What color is Benjamin Moore Iris Bliss?
Benjamin Moore Iris Bliss 1383 is a muted lavender-gray with a softly dusty cast. Its low saturation keeps the purple presence understated, so it reads more like a gentle colored neutral than a bright pastel. In daylight, the gray base may become more apparent, while warmer lamps can bring out its faint mauve warmth. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and reading nooks where a quiet wash of color feels appropriate without becoming sugary. Pair Iris Bliss with warm white trim, weathered oak, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents for a grounded contrast.

LRV of Iris Bliss
Iris Bliss has an LRV of 34.45% 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 34.45%, 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.
