What color is Dulux Passion Flower?

Dulux Passion Flower 90RB 16/244 is a muted mid-depth purple with noticeable dusty rose and brown-grey undertones. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading overly sweet, giving walls a grounded plum character rather than a bright violet finish. In warm light, Passion Flower can appear rosier and more earthen, while cooler daylight brings forward its smoky mauve side. It suits bedrooms, dining rooms, and small sitting areas where a deeper wall color can add definition without feeling harsh. Pair it with warm off-whites, soft taupe, aged brass, walnut, or natural linen for a layered, tactile scheme.
