What color is Dulux White Chiffon?

Dulux White Chiffon 44YY 84/042 is a very light off-white with a soft beige-grey cast rather than a crisp, blue-white finish. Its muted warmth is visible in the #EEE9DE value, giving walls a gentle, lightly shaded appearance that can feel creamier in warm daylight and more neutral under cooler artificial light. White Chiffon suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a bright backdrop is wanted without the starkness of pure white. Pair it with pale oak, linen, natural stone, and chalky taupe or mushroom accents to continue its understated warmth. On trim or cabinetry, it will read as a subtle tonal alternative to brighter white walls.

What are Dulux White Chiffon undertones?

White Chiffon is a near-white, very muted creamy off-white. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow-orange bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow-orange. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

HEX value:

#EEE9DE
