AF-655 · Affinity Collection

Benjamin Moore describes it as an alluring mix of rich espresso hues with subtle notes of charcoal — burnt umber with delicate charcoal undertones, drawn from a modern take on classical suiting.

It is a dark colour that still reads warm, which is why it works on panelled walls and on a whole room rather than just an accent. Ask for a half-pint sample before you commit a room to it.
