What color is Sherwin Williams Narcissus?
Sherwin Williams Narcissus SW 6707 is a very light, creamy yellow with a soft butter-colored cast rather than a sharp citrus look. Its pale value keeps it airy on broad walls, especially in kitchens, breakfast rooms, and sunlit hallways. In bright daylight, Narcissus can read as a clean pastel yellow, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its richer vanilla warmth. Pair it with warm white trim, light oak, woven natural fibers, or muted sage and olive accents for a grounded contrast. It is best suited to walls or painted furniture where its gentle yellow presence can brighten the room without becoming dominant.

LRV of Narcissus
Narcissus has an LRV of 83.31% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 83.31%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
