#8B8B21

The hexcode #8B8B21 is a lighter and less saturated variant of the shade "Olive". By itself, it is commonly associated with heavy (93.4% match), bitter (91.7% match), and active (90.1% match). When Olive is combined with Cadmium Green, it relates to the terms modest and bitter. When joined with Otter Brown, it becomes more related to the term sturdy. When Olive is added to Smoky Black, it shares association with the terms prehistoric and hydrangea. When paired with its complementary color #21218C, a cooler and less saturated variant of the shade "Cosmic Cobalt", it shares connection with the terms aristocratic or modern. However, when we analyze the color next to its other triadic colors, #208C8C (a shade of "Dark Cyan") and #8C208C (a shade of "Dark Magenta"), the resulting palette becomes harder and warmer than the complementary color palette and changes from the color index category of "dynamic" to the "classic" category. Specifically, the new triad is most suggestive of mysterious and hilarious.
