What color is Dulux Lavender Blossom 3?

Dulux Lavender Blossom 3 30RB 54/132 is a light, muted lavender with a gentle grey cast that keeps the purple from feeling overly sweet. Its cool violet character is soft rather than bright, giving walls a quiet wash of color while still reading clearly against white trim. In daylight, the shade can appear airy and powdery; under warmer evening lighting, its lavender note may feel a little fuller. It suits bedrooms, reading corners, and bathrooms, especially alongside chalky whites, pale greys, brushed nickel, or light oak. For more contrast, pair Lavender Blossom 3 with deep plum accents, charcoal textiles, or near-black painted details.
