On this page

Vintage Vogue is Benjamin Moore 462, a muted, grayed olive with hex #565D4F and RGB 86, 93, 79. Its LRV is 11.85, so it counts as a very dark paint.

The measurements

The HSL reading is hsl(90, 8%, 34%) and the OKLCH reading is oklch(46.8% 0.024 129). Lab comes out at lab(38.5% -5 7.1), where the negative a value confirms a push toward green. ColorPlum's classification calls the cast green on a cool-leaning base, and the chroma of 0.024 keeps it quiet. Under warm evening light the green tends to come forward more than it does at noon.

Benjamin Moore's listed partners

Four coordinating colors are given for this one: Muslin (OC-12), Beach House Beige (1083), Dewdrop (CC-608) and Tea Light (CC-610). I can only name these and give their codes, since our site has no pages for them. Muslin has the OC prefix used by several of the light colors on this site, but the file gives no hex for it, so check its chip in person.

Similar dark colors

Within Benjamin Moore, Chimichurri (CSP-810) is the nearest at ΔE 4.6, related but easy to see. Kendall Charcoal (HC-166) is 8, and Wrought Iron (2124-10) is 10.5, so both are clearly different.

Sherwin-Williams has closer options. Forestwood (SW 7730) is 3.5, Pewter Green (SW 6208) is 3.6, and Rosemary (SW 6187) is 4.7. Thunder Gray (SW 7645) is 7.9. No match falls under 2, so a cross-brand swap will look different. Ask for a sample pot and judge it on the wall.

One practical point about very dark greens is that they pull in the colors around them. A white ceiling reflects a little into the walls, and a red rug will nudge the green toward gray. Look at the sample with your real furniture in place, not against a blank sheet of cardboard.

Worked example

Imagine a home office with a single west window and a built-in bookcase. Painting the shelving back panels in Vintage Vogue makes spines and framed prints stand out, and the green reads as a calm backdrop rather than a loud accent. Leave the surrounding walls in Muslin (OC-12), the first partner on the list, so the room keeps enough reflected light. Late afternoon sun will warm the green, so check your sample at that hour.

Type on this color

White text on #565D4F gives 6.83:1, which clears the 4.5:1 minimum for body copy in WCAG 2.2. Black text gives only 3.07:1, which passes just for large type. For a menu board or a web header in this shade, white is the practical choice.
