Magenta combines the depth of a deep, warm pink with subtle blush undertones for a comfortable effect. With an LRV of 27, it creates a cocooning effect, perfect for moody bedrooms, libraries, and intimate dining rooms. For a cross-brand equivalent, Sherwin-Williams's Cerise is an extremely close match. Behr's Sweet Cherry runs close as well. Coordinate with warm whites for trim and natural materials like jute and linen for a layered look.
