What color is Dulux Soft Cinnebar 2?

Dulux Soft Cinnebar 2 70RR 24/096 is a muted, medium-depth red with a distinctly softened pink-grey cast. Its low saturation keeps the color grounded rather than bright, giving walls a gentle, powdery appearance. In daylight, Soft Cinnebar 2 can read as a subdued dusty rose, while lower or warmer light brings out its quieter reddish tone. It suits bedrooms, dining rooms, and small sitting areas where a darker neutral alternative is wanted, and can also add character to painted cabinetry. Pair it with off-white, warm grey, natural oak, linen, and dark brown accents for a restrained, tactile scheme.
