About Sweet Salmon

Sweet Salmon (2167-60) is a very light warm white from Benjamin Moore with a warm peach undertone. With an LRV of 81, Sweet Salmon 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 Sweet Salmon's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for whole-house walls, living rooms, bedrooms and trim with a deeper wall color. It's very close to Peach Nectar (2168-60); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.
