You can query the ColorizationColor registry key for this.

I've even went a step further and created a method to get the hexadecimal colour value, hope this helps you:

public void SomeMethod()
{
    int argbColor = (int)Microsoft.Win32.Registry.GetValue(@"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM","ColorizationColor", null);
    var color = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(argbColor);
    string hexadecimalColor = ConverterToHex(color);
}


private static String ConverterToHex(System.Drawing.Color c)
{
    return String.Format("#{0}{1}{2}", c.R.ToString("X2"), c.G.ToString("X2"), c.B.ToString("X2"));
}
