What color is Dulux Safari Spice?

Dulux Safari Spice 10YY 49/378 is a warm, mid-light golden beige with a noticeable honeyed orange cast. It brings more color than a standard neutral, yet its softened saturation keeps it from reading as bright yellow or terracotta. In sunny rooms, Safari Spice can look richer and more sun-baked, while cooler daylight may draw out its sandy beige side. It suits living rooms, dining spaces, hallways, and kitchen walls where a grounded warm tone is wanted. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, warm brown wood, rattan, linen, or matte black details for contrast.
