About Blossom Tint

Blossom Tint (933) is a very light warm white from Benjamin Moore with a warm yellow undertone. With an LRV of 87, Blossom Tint reflects most of the light that hits it, which helps small or dim rooms feel larger.

In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Blossom Tint's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for trim and doors, ceilings, kitchens and whole-house walls. It's very close to Cream Silk (OC-115); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.

S

South-facing rooms

In strong south light Blossom Tint can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.

W

West-facing rooms

Blossom Tint will glow warmer in the late afternoon, so check it at sunset if you want to avoid a strong yellow cast.
