Extra Virgin is a soft, earthy moss green built to go with everything. This is a grounded, natural green that feels rich and characterful without being loud, which is why owners describe it as the shade that quietly pulls a whole room together. Its mossy quality reads calm and organic, so it works like a colored neutral across many spaces and styles.

At an LRV of 34, Extra Virgin lands in a versatile mid-range that is the key to its appeal: it delivers real depth and pigment while still reading, in reviewers' own words, rich without feeling dark. In bright, natural light, its fresh moss character comes forward. In lower or evening light, it deepens into a cozier, more enveloping green. That balance is what lets it move comfortably from a sunny kitchen to a snug bedroom.

The cool, earthy base pairs beautifully with warm and crisp whites, natural wood, brass, and soft neutrals, keeping the palette grounded and inviting. Extra Virgin works in kitchens, entryways, bedrooms, living rooms, bathrooms, and on cabinetry where a natural, easy green is the goal. For trim, run Timeless or Whipped alongside it, or let it carry a whole space as a soft, all-over green.

Best for: Kitchens, entryways, bedrooms, living rooms, bathrooms, cabinetry

Pairs best with: Timeless (off-white trim), Whipped (warm white), natural wood accents, brass hardware

Color family: Green (moss green)

Undertone detail: Cool and earthy; a soft moss that reads natural rather than yellow or grassy

LRV interpretation: 34, a versatile mid-range value that reads rich and pigmented while still feeling light rather than dark

Lighting guidance: Bright light: fresh moss character comes forward. Low or evening light: deepens to a cozier green

Finish recommendation: Eggshell for walls; Semi-Gloss for trim, doors, and cabinets for a clean, dimensional contrast

Complementary Clare colors: Timeless, Whipped, Daily Greens, Dirty Martini, Avocado Toast

FAQs

How does Extra Virgin look in natural light vs. artificial light?

Extra Virgin shifts noticeably between natural and artificial light. In bright, natural daylight, its fresh, earthy moss character reads clearest. In lower or evening light, it deepens into a cozier, richer green while, as reviewers consistently note, still not feeling dark. Sampling in the actual space before committing to a full gallon is recommended, which is why Clare offers peel-and-stick swatches.

How does Extra Virgin compare to other similar Clare shades?

For shades adjacent to Extra Virgin, consider Daily Greens, which reads deeper and more hunter, or Dirty Martini, which leans lighter and more gray-olive. For a brighter, fresher medium green, Avocado Toast turns up the clarity. Clare's peel-and-stick swatches make it easy to compare these greens side by side in your space before committing.

What is the best way to choose between similar paint colors?

Sampling in the actual room is the single most reliable way to choose between similar colors. Paint colors shift depending on the room's light exposure, ceiling height, furnishings, and flooring. Clare's peel-and-stick swatches allow direct comparison of multiple colors on the wall without the mess of traditional paint samples. Observe each swatch at different times of day and under both natural and artificial light before making a final decision.

What does LRV mean, and how does it affect paint color selection?

LRV stands for Light Reflectance Value. It measures how much light a paint color reflects on a scale from 0 (absolute black, absorbs all light) to 100 (pure white, reflects all light). Colors with higher LRV values make rooms feel brighter and more open; colors with lower LRV values feel richer and more dramatic. As a general guideline, LRV 50 and above works well in most rooms and lighting conditions. For rooms with limited natural light, prioritizing colors with LRV 55 or higher helps maintain a bright, welcoming feel.

What Clare paint color is best for a small bedroom?

For small bedrooms, high-LRV colors (LRV 55 and above) open up the space and make it feel larger. Clare On Point, Whipped and Timeless all work well in smaller bedrooms. Soft warm neutrals in the greige and warm beige families add coziness without closing the space in. For small bedrooms where drama is the goal, low-LRV colors like Deep Dive or Current Mood work beautifully when balanced with strong light sources and light-colored furnishings.

Such a good color

Amazing color and the coverage is SO impressive.

We recently moved into an older home with some extremely dingy walls. I had some leftover box store paint that I used and needed 4 coats to cover the walls whereas I got an amazing finish after only 2 coats with the Clare paint!

Rich without being dark

This color is really lovely. Painted our kitchen and entryway. It is super rich but does not feel dark at all. Could almost get away with only 1 coat, we did 2 but had we painted thicker one may have worked. I love it so much it is hard not to paint the whole house this shade.

great for painting murals!

this color went great with the other colors i ordered from clare. this is my first mural ever, and it helped a ton not to have to worry about whether the colors would look good together. even with me being really sparing on the application, two coats were plenty for solid coverage. i can't wait to paint more murals!

Extra Virgin for any room

Extra Virgin really does look good in any room. Goes with everything, and feels comfortable and familiar, especially if you're an out-in-the-natural-world kind of person.

2 coats, slow drying (better with a fan), rich pigments.
