South China Sea is a deep, warm neutral — inviting in tone, with subtle purple undertones. With an LRV of 28, it grounds a space with quiet intensity, working beautifully in dens, master bedrooms, and formal dining rooms. For a cross-brand equivalent, Kilz's Blue Galaxy is a near-identical match. Behr's Manhattan Blue runs close as well.
