About Majestic Sage
Majestic Sage (1532) is a deep beige from Benjamin Moore with a warm yellow undertone. With an LRV of 24, Majestic Sage absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Majestic Sage's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, offices, accent walls and kitchen cabinets. Next to Hampshire Gray (HC-101), it's warmer.
