deep orange

Vivid sunset hue

Deep orange is an intensified shade of orange, richer and more saturated than standard orange, approaching the color of a ripe persimmon or marigold.

The modifier deep suggests darkness and saturation rather than brightness: The sky turned deep orange at sunset.

Often used in design, fashion, and natural description.
