What color is Dulux Moroccan Sands 3?

Dulux Moroccan Sands 3 13YY 60/475 is a light, sun-warmed golden orange with a clear peachy cast. Its bright value keeps the color feeling open on broad walls, while the saturated yellow-orange tone gives it more presence than a typical cream or beige. In direct daylight, Moroccan Sands 3 can read fresh and honeyed; under warmer evening lighting, its orange undertones become more noticeable. It suits kitchens, dining spaces, and playful living areas, especially alongside chalky white trim, terracotta, pale wood, or woven natural-fibre finishes. Use it on full walls where a cheerful wash of color is wanted, or on a feature wall and painted furniture for a concentrated hit of warmth.
