Esmeralda vs Erin Green
Where Esmeralda belongs to Behr's range, Erin Green is a Benjamin Moore color. Hue-wise, Esmeralda belongs to the blue family and Erin Green to the blue-green family. Erin Green (LRV 23) reflects noticeably more light than Esmeralda (LRV 18), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green and blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 5.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
