I took it from the website https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/.

Here are a few other possible combinations taken from the website.  I have attached an image demonstrating them behind the Emacs icon.

  <branding>
    <color type="primary" scheme_preference="light">#7f5ab6</color>
    <color type="primary" scheme_preference="dark">#624195</color>
  </branding>

  <branding>
    <color type="primary" scheme_preference="light">#f4f2e9</color>
    <color type="primary" scheme_preference="dark">#624195</color>
  </branding>

  <branding>
    <color type="primary" scheme_preference="light">#f4f2e9</color>
    <color type="primary" scheme_preference="dark">#7f5ab6</color>
  </branding>
