What color is Dulux Wholemeal Honey 6?

Dulux Wholemeal Honey 6 90YR 77/115 is a light, creamy peach-beige with a clear warm cast. Its high lightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the rosy apricot undertone prevents it from reading like a plain off-white. In daylight, this color appears softly sun-warmed; under warmer evening bulbs, the peach notes become more noticeable. Wholemeal Honey 6 suits living rooms, bedrooms, and dining areas where a gentle, light-reflecting backdrop is wanted. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, terracotta accents, or muted olive details for a grounded finish.
