Dulux Lavender Quartz 90BB 50/086 is a light, muted blue-grey with a gentle violet cast. Its low saturation keeps it quiet on broad walls, while the cool undertone gives it a clean, slightly misty appearance rather than a sweet pastel look. In daylight, Lavender Quartz reads more clearly blue-lilac; under warmer evening lighting, its grey component becomes more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and softly modern living rooms, especially alongside off-white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or charcoal details. Use this color on full walls for a subtle wash of colour, or on cabinetry and built-ins where a restrained cool accent is wanted.
