The hex value is the planner’s on-screen approximation, not a paint formula, and the light reflectance is estimated from it. Screens, daylight, bulbs and sheen all change how a paint looks, so check a physical sample or tester pot on your wall before you order. The official Benjamin Moore color page has the manufacturer’s own details.
How Silhouette behaves in a room
With an estimated light reflectance of about 8, it absorbs most of the light that reaches it. That makes a room feel enclosed and cosy, which is usually the point; plan lighting for the evening.
Its undertone is warm. Warm colors hold up well in north-facing rooms, where daylight is cooler, and can look richer or more yellow in strong south-facing light.
Where it tends to be used
Deep colors like this are usually used with intent: a feature wall, a study, dining room or snug, front and internal doors, cabinets or woodwork.
