What color is Dulux Soft Eden?

Dulux Soft Eden is a very light, softly muted green with a noticeable yellow cast that keeps it from reading icy or blue. Its high lightness makes it especially effective on walls in rooms that need a gentle wash of color without losing brightness. In direct daylight, Soft Eden can appear fresher and cleaner, while warmer artificial lighting tends to bring forward its pale leafy warmth. Pair it with creamy whites, light oak, natural linen, or muted clay tones for a relaxed, grounded palette. It also suits painted cabinetry or a small accent area where a barely-there green is preferred over a neutral.
