"indulge" (complaciente)
I would suggest you leave it in English with quotes and put a Spanish equivalent next to it. If the client wants it all in Spanish, maybe you can put something like "Dése el gusto"

Me imagino que puede referirse a que el color no genere "emociones", sino que sea un color tranquilo. Just a wild guess.
