Mascarpone review: Benjamin Moore AF-20

Mascarpone in real light

Same sample board, four compass directions: this is the standardized shot list every color on this site gets, so you can compare across colors and not just across one photographer's living room. Photos for this color are still being shot; the notes below are what to expect from the color's undertone.

North light North light is cool and indirect all day, so it mutes Mascarpone's warmth and can make it read flatter and slightly gray.
East light Morning east light is warm and golden, so Mascarpone looks brightest and warmest early in the day, then cools and flattens by afternoon as the light moves west.
South light South-facing rooms get the most direct sun all day, which pushes Mascarpone's warmth further, sometimes past what the chip suggests.
West light Afternoon west light is warm and can run intense right at sunset, then goes flat and cool in the morning before the sun reaches that side of the house.

warm creamy white, clear yellow undertone.

A warmer, creamier white than Cloud White or Swiss Coffee; suited to whole-house use in homes wanting a soft, cozy white rather than a bright, neutral one. LRV and hex here have fewer independent confirmations than other colors on this site; worth a fan-deck check before a full-room commitment.
