What color is Benjamin Moore Mighty Aphrodite?

Benjamin Moore Mighty Aphrodite 1397 is a muted lavender with a noticeable violet-blue cast and a softly grayed finish. Its mid-light depth gives walls color without making them feel overly sweet or bright. In daylight, Mighty Aphrodite reads as a gentle dusty purple, while warmer lamps can bring forward its softer mauve side. It is especially appealing in bedrooms, reading nooks, or a powder room, and can also make a distinctive choice for painted furniture. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, brushed brass, or deep charcoal accents for contrast.

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 36.48%, 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.
