Puce rooms generate calmness (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

composure

'calmness' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'puce rooms generate' is the wordplay.
'generate' indicates an anagram.
'puce'+'rooms'='pucerooms'
'pucerooms' anagrammed gives 'COMPOSURE'.

(Other definitions for composure that I've seen before include "State of calmness" , "tranquillity" , "Aplomb" , "Calm state" , "Coolness" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
