What color is Benjamin Moore Pale Daffodil?
Benjamin Moore Pale Daffodil 2017-60 is a very light yellow with a creamy, softly peach-tinted cast drawn from its #FFECC7 color value. Its high brightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the gentle warmth prevents it from reading like a stark off-white. In daylight, Pale Daffodil can look fresh and buttery; under warm bulbs, its golden-cream side becomes more noticeable. It suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, children’s rooms, or a sunlit hallway, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, and muted green or soft blue accents. Use it on walls or cabinetry where a quiet wash of color is wanted without a deeply saturated yellow.

LRV of Pale Daffodil
Pale Daffodil has an LRV of 81.53% and refers to Off‑White 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 81.53%, 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.
