What color is Benjamin Moore Peach Nectar?
Benjamin Moore Peach Nectar 2168-60 is a very light, creamy peach with a soft blush-pink cast and a warm, sunlit character. Its pale value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the peach undertone adds more color than an off-white without becoming sugary or bright. In north-facing rooms, Peach Nectar may read a little quieter and pinker; warm afternoon light brings out its apricot-cream side. It suits bedrooms, nurseries, powder rooms, and dining spaces where a gentle wash of warmth is welcome. Pair it with ivory trim, light oak, woven cane, warm brass, or muted clay and terracotta accents for a layered, natural palette.

LRV of Peach Nectar
Peach Nectar has an LRV of 77.97% 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 77.97%, 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.
