# Dulux Bitter Chocolate 4

Source: [https://plan-home.com/color/bitter-chocolate-4](https://plan-home.com/color/bitter-chocolate-4)

Dulux Bitter Chocolate 4 50YR 47/057 is a light, muted neutral with a warm grey-beige base and a faint rosy taupe cast. Its low-saturation appearance keeps it soft rather than overtly brown, making it a useful alternative to cooler greys or creamier beiges. In daylight, Bitter Chocolate 4 reads as a pale, gently warmed grey; under warmer lamps, its beige and pinked undertones become more noticeable. Use it across living-room or bedroom walls for a quiet backdrop, or on cabinetry where a subtle neutral is wanted instead of bright white. It pairs naturally with chalky whites, deeper mushroom browns, aged brass, pale oak, linen, and warm stone finishes.
