What color is Dulux Cherry Chocolate?

Dulux Cherry Chocolate 90RR 08/129 is a deep, muted red-brown with a faint dusky plum cast. Its low-light depth gives it a grounded, cocooning presence, while the restrained saturation keeps it from reading as bright red. In daylight, the red undertone is more noticeable; under warmer evening lighting, this shade can appear closer to softened cocoa brown. Use it on a dining-room wall, library cabinetry, or a small powder room where a dark color can feel intentional rather than heavy. Pair Cherry Chocolate with warm off-whites, clay-toned neutrals, aged brass, walnut, and natural linen for a layered, tactile scheme.
