What color is Benjamin Moore Peppermint Leaf?

Benjamin Moore Peppermint Leaf 2033-20 is a vivid, medium-depth green with a clean, slightly cool cast. Its strong saturation gives it real presence, reading as a crisp botanical green rather than a muted olive or yellow-leaning leaf tone. In bright daylight, this color feels especially fresh and clear, while lower light can deepen its appearance into a richer green. Use it for a front door, built-in cabinetry, a powder room, or a single accent wall where a bold dose of color is welcome. Peppermint Leaf pairs well with bright white trim, pale natural wood, matte black hardware, and warm terracotta or clay accents.

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 21.59%, 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.
