What color is Benjamin Moore Mandarin Orange?
Benjamin Moore Mandarin Orange 2018-20 is a vivid, high-energy orange with a clear golden cast, reflected in its bright #FFA706 color value. It reads warm and sunny rather than red-heavy, bringing immediate visual weight to a room without looking dark. Use it on a front door, kitchen island, dining chairs, or a single accent wall where its saturation can be intentional. Crisp white trim keeps the look graphic, while charcoal, deep navy, natural oak, and woven rattan give the color a more grounded setting. Strong daylight emphasizes its bright yellow-orange side, while warmer evening light can make it feel richer and more concentrated.

LRV of Mandarin Orange
Mandarin Orange has an LRV of 46.13% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 46.13%, 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.
