How do you read an Ellen Wille color name?
Example: "Bernstein Rooted" = warm amber-brown + dark roots. "Chocolate Mix" = chocolate brown + mixed color effect.
Color name (base tone) + additional term (color character) — that is the principle. The color name is always first, the effect always follows.
