# Dulux Wistful Mauve

Source: [https://plan-home.com/color/wistful-mauve](https://plan-home.com/color/wistful-mauve)

Dulux Wistful Mauve 30RR 22/031 is a muted, medium-dark mauve with a noticeable grey cast, reflected in its soft #807A7C appearance. Its restrained red-violet tint keeps it from reading as a plain charcoal or taupe, while the low saturation makes the color feel quiet rather than sugary. In bright daylight, Wistful Mauve can appear closer to a softened grey with a faint rosy note; under warmer lamps, its mauve character is likely to become more apparent. It suits a bedroom feature wall, a compact dining room, or painted cabinetry where a dark neutral is wanted without using black. Pair it with chalky off-whites, weathered oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal textiles for a grounded, layered scheme.
