What color is Dulux Lilac Spring 1?

Dulux Lilac Spring 1 41RB 30/290 is a muted mid-tone lilac with a softly greyed, mauve-leaning cast. Its moderate depth gives it more presence than a pale lavender, while the restrained saturation keeps it from reading overly sweet or bright. In clear daylight, Lilac Spring 1 shows as a gentle violet-purple; under warmer lamps, its redder notes can become more noticeable. It suits bedroom walls, a reading nook, or painted cabinetry where a measured wash of color is wanted. Pair it with chalky white, soft stone grey, dusty rose, or natural oak, and add blackened metal details for definition.
