About Orange Blossom
Orange Blossom (2168-30) is a deep, bold orange from Benjamin Moore that leans peach. With an LRV of 31, Orange Blossom 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 Orange Blossom's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for living rooms, bedrooms and accent walls. It's very close to Harvest Moon (2167-30); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.
