Alfalfa Extract vs Denim Drift

Alfalfa ExtractBehrvsDenim DriftDuluxΔE 33.2Very different colors

Alfalfa Extract (Behr) and Denim Drift (Dulux) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Alfalfa Extract belongs to the green family and Denim Drift to the blue-grey family. The 16-point LRV gap — 27 for Denim Drift vs 11 for Alfalfa Extract — means Denim Drift will open up a space more effectively. Where Alfalfa Extract leans green, Denim Drift reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 33.2 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
