What color is Dulux Sultana Spice 2?

Dulux Sultana Spice 2 70YR 31/135 is a muted mid-tone beige with a noticeable dusty rose cast. Its warm, softened appearance keeps it from reading as plain tan, while the greyed quality prevents it from becoming overly pink. In daylight, this shade can look like a faded clay neutral; under warm evening lamps, its rosy-brown side becomes more apparent. Use it on living-room or bedroom walls with cream trim, natural linen, oak, and aged brass for a layered, earthy scheme. It also has enough depth for a painted cabinet or a single accent wall alongside pale stone, soft mushroom grey, or charcoal details.
