What color is Dulux Fragrant Cloud 4?

Dulux Fragrant Cloud 4 70BB 67/096 is a light, muted blue with a noticeable soft grey cast and a faint lavender-blue edge. Its high lightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the restrained saturation prevents it from reading like a bright pastel. In north-facing rooms, Fragrant Cloud 4 may appear cooler and slightly more silvery; warmer daylight and lamp light can draw out its gentler blue tone. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet home offices, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or soft charcoal details. For contrast, pair this color with deeper slate blue, ink navy, or warm off-white rather than overly vivid hues.
