What color is Dulux Dried Roses?

Dulux Dried Roses 50RR 15/266 is a deep, muted rose with a noticeable mauve cast and an earthy, greyed softness. Its mid-dark depth gives it enough presence for a feature wall, painted wardrobe, or dining-room cabinetry without reading as bright pink. In daylight, Dried Roses can show its dusty berry character, while warm evening lighting tends to draw out its redder, more cocooning side. Pair it with chalky off-whites, soft mushroom beige, charcoal, or aged brass for contrast, and use natural oak or walnut to ground the color. It is particularly effective in bedrooms, studies, and small sitting rooms where a richer wall color can make the room feel more considered.
