Dunn‑Edwards color · mixed in Benjamin Moore
Benjamin Moore already has the formula for Bourbon Truffle, so we mix the exact color at our North Scottsdale counter, in the line the surface needs. Same color, better paint. If you’d rather choose one of Benjamin Moore’s own colors, the five closest are below. Bourbon Truffle is currently approved in 6 Arizona HOA schemes we track.
About this color
Sheen: Matte or eggshell on interior walls — at this depth eggshell handles scuffs and touch-ups better than matte. Flat on exterior stucco; soft gloss on doors and shutters.
DET699 Bourbon Truffle is a deep, muted pink (LRV ≈ 10). Deep, low-chroma bodies are common in Arizona desert palettes: terracotta-leaning browns, deep taupes and warm charcoals. Its LRV is under the overlay caps, but it is too saturated for the color rules in the Scottsdale ESL, Paradise Valley Hillside and Scottsdale Foothills overlays. Element Guard handles the heat load on a body application; for a front door, Aura Exterior or Regal Select soft gloss.
Which Benjamin Moore line?
Soft gloss holds a clean edge on trim, fascia and doors, and resists chalking in our sun. Arizona schemes set the trim darker than the body; where a dark trim color takes full afternoon sun, Aura Exterior holds it longest. Bring the Benjamin Moore code from any of the five swatches above and we’ll mix that exact color at the counter.
