What color is Benjamin Moore Purplicious?

Benjamin Moore Purplicious CSP-465 is a deep, muted purple with a slightly cool violet cast and a softly shadowed appearance. Its low-key saturation keeps it from reading overly bright, giving walls a grounded plum-charcoal character. In dim rooms, Purplicious can look nearly blackened purple, while brighter light brings out more of its violet tone. It suits a powder room, library, dining room, or a dramatic accent wall, and can also give painted cabinetry a rich, tailored look. Pair it with warm off-whites, pale greige, natural oak, aged brass, or charcoal-toned stone for contrast that lets the color’s depth show.

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 6.82%, 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.
