What color is Dulux Soft Montelimar 2?

Dulux Soft Montelimar 2 30RR 30/103 is a muted mid-tone mauve with a noticeable rosy-purple cast. Its softened saturation keeps the color from reading too sweet, giving walls a grounded, powdery appearance instead. In daylight, Soft Montelimar 2 can show more of its dusty pink character, while lower or warmer light brings forward its deeper plum-grey side. It is particularly effective in bedrooms, dining rooms, or a small sitting room where a darker, enveloping wall color is welcome. Pair it with warm off-whites, faded olive greens, walnut, aged brass, and natural linen for a layered, tactile scheme.
