What color is Dulux Paradise Green 1?

Dulux Paradise Green 1 90GY 10/250 is a deep green with a muted, earthy character rather than a bright botanical look. Its dark value gives walls a grounded presence, while the green remains clear enough to read as color in a well-lit room. In daylight, Paradise Green 1 can show more of its natural green tone; under warm evening lighting, it is likely to appear deeper and more subdued. Use it on a dining-room wall, library, hallway cabinetry, or exterior trim where its depth can be appreciated up close. Pair this shade with warm off-whites, natural oak, aged brass, tan leather, and textured linen for contrast without making the scheme feel overly sharp.
