What color is Dulux Tarragon Glory 6?

Dulux Tarragon Glory 6 70YY 59/485 is a mid-light golden yellow with a softened, slightly earthy cast rather than a sharp citrus brightness. Its warm yellow base can bring gentle colour to kitchens, breakfast rooms, or hallways, especially where pale daylight might otherwise feel cool. In strong sun, the shade is likely to read clearer and more cheerful, while evening lighting can draw out its deeper honeyed character. Pair Tarragon Glory 6 with warm whites, muted olive greens, natural oak, rattan, or brushed brass for a grounded interior scheme. It has enough presence for full walls but can also give cabinetry or a painted alcove a distinctive dose of colour.
