What color is Dulux Emporium Rose 2?

Dulux Emporium Rose 2 10RR 26/248 is a muted mid-tone rose with a dusty mauve cast, sitting between pink, berry, and soft purple. Its greyed-down quality keeps the color from reading sugary, while the blue influence gives it a gently cool direction. In bright daylight, Emporium Rose 2 can appear like a faded rose pink; under warmer evening lamps, its berry notes become more noticeable. It has enough depth for a bedroom wall, dining nook, or painted cabinet front, especially when paired with warm white trim and natural oak. Soft mushroom beige, charcoal, aged brass, and off-white linen are particularly fitting companions for this shade.
