What color is Dulux Chartreuse Charm?

Dulux Chartreuse Charm is a bold yellow-green with a distinctly golden cast, sitting closer to mustard than to a fresh leaf green. Its rich, mid-depth color has enough earthiness to feel grounded, while the yellow keeps it bright and energetic in daylight. On a feature wall or painted cabinet, Chartreuse Charm pairs well with warm white, charcoal, deep olive, and natural oak. Matte black hardware and aged brass bring out its darker, spicy undertones, while pale stone or cream textiles keep the look from becoming too intense. In lower light, this shade is likely to read deeper and more olive-toned than it does in a sunlit room.
