#9187bd - Heliotropic Mauve color

This is a soft, muted lavender-lilac that leans slightly toward periwinkle due to cool blue undertones. Medium-light and gently desaturated, it reads sophisticated and calming rather than garish, evoking twilight skies, worn silk, and classic floral arrangements. It feels elegant and slightly vintage, suitable for feminine yet modern palettes, interior accents, fashion fabrics, and user interfaces. Pairs beautifully with warm creams, deep navy, soft gray, or metallics like rose gold to create refined, soothing contrasts.
