A very light, cool blue, Empress Lila carries steely blue undertones and a distinctly elegant presence. With an LRV of 85, it offers a serene backdrop for bedrooms, bathrooms, and reading nooks. The closest cross-brand match is Hirshfield's's Empress Lila, a near-identical match. Kilz's Refreshing is another strong alternative. Balance its cool character with warm neutrals on adjacent surfaces, or embrace the chill with blue-gray accents.
