Piment Piquant

Piment Piquant looks like a fresh chili pepper crushed on a cutting board, that sharp orange-red you get before it turns smoky or settles into darker wine. Compared to Pizza Flame, it's less "edge-of-the-oven" playful and more direct, with a cleaner, higher-energy surface. Next to Lionheart, it gives up some of that disciplined depth and feels more orange-forward and punchy, not stern.

This is the one you reach for when you need a primary orange-red that stays crisp in UI motion without tipping into flare-red urgency. I use it for food and beverage labels, flavor tags, and "limited batch" badges where the color has to read like heat, not like warning. It also works well for e-commerce CTA chips and category headers in retail apps, where it needs to feel appetizing and immediate, not brothy or cooled like Minestrone.

Quirk: on very dark panels it can look slightly more saturated than you expect, so I like balancing it with charcoals or muted creams to keep the mood controlled.
