The long established convention is to use the terms "warmer" and "cooler" to refer to the visual impression and not the temperature of a theoretical "black body radiator" that yields the same balance of emissions across the visual spectrum. The yellower/redder light produced by the lower temperature radiator is perceived as "warmer" and the bluer balance produced at higher temperatures is perceived as "cooler". Misusing the terms can lead to confusion in your search.

If the warmer options are dimmer per watt then simply look for higher wattage lamps.
