Properly speaking, powder blue refers to either smalt, a crushed-glass product used in laundering and dying applications and of a deep, dark blue hue, or to other things that have this same dark blue coloration. However, it has since come to refer also to lighter shades, perhaps resulting from confusion over the word's origin.
The United States rock group Ween has released a song titled Powder Blue on their album 12 Golden Country Greats.
