What color is Dulux Fresh Lemongrass?

Dulux Fresh Lemongrass is a very light, softened yellow with a creamy cast and a subtle green-leaning freshness. Its high brightness keeps it airy on walls, while the muted saturation prevents it from reading as a sharp or sugary pastel. In daylight, Fresh Lemongrass can appear close to warm ivory with a gentle yellow wash; under warmer bulbs, its buttery side becomes more noticeable. It suits kitchens, breakfast areas, and small bedrooms where a pale color can add warmth without making the room feel enclosed. Pair it with off-white trim, pale oak, natural linen, soft sage accents, or charcoal details for clearer contrast.
