#B998EF sits at 263° on the color wheel, placing it in the violet family of the cool half of the spectrum. With 73% saturation and 77% lightness, it reads as a richly saturated, very light tone — a soft but unmistakably tinted presence. Its RGB mix of 185, 152, 239 produces a 8.80:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #B998EF is a clear variant of CSS violet — about 57 units away from #EE82EE. Designers reach for violet hues at this saturation when the brief calls for bold, immediate signal, and at this lightness when they want lift, air, and gentle emphasis. On screen the cool cast tends to pair best with warm neutrals in the 25°-45° range to add life.
