Menthol Technical Profile
What color is Menthol? It's a medium cool green with the hex code #73FE8F. Menthol has a cool (green) undertone, which affects how it pairs with trim, flooring, and adjacent wall colors. Its LRV of 46 gives Menthol depth without going dark, which makes it a strong choice for accent walls, libraries, and rooms with abundant natural light. Pair it with off-whites like Simply White, walnut or rift-cut oak floors, and mixed metals — brass for warmth, matte black for grounding. Terracotta and rust accents add warm contrast. Greens shift the most under different light. 2700K warms them toward olive or yellow-green; 4000K daylight reveals their true tone. Bluer greens especially benefit from north-facing daylight.
