Orange Aurora is a mid-toned red from Little Greene. As a premium paint, it’s a popular colour to seek out close matches and value-brand alternatives to.
Bongo Jazz 1 by Dulux is the closest match from any other brand (very close) — and it holds Orange Aurora’s lightness, warmth and saturation alike. The closest value-tier option is Rustic Pottery by Johnstone's (close), darker (about 2 LRV points), slightly cooler and noticeably softer. A cooler match reads cooler still in a north-facing room, where the light is indirect. Only one of the 8 other brands manages a near-identical match, which makes Orange Aurora fairly distinctive. LRV is estimated from each brand’s swatch, so order testers before committing.
