Melting Moment vs Wintergreen Dream
Both from Behr's palette. Both sit in the green family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Melting Moment (LRV 71) reflects noticeably more light than Wintergreen Dream (LRV 55), a difference of 16 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 9.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Melting Moment vs Wintergreen Dream in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Melting Moment and Wintergreen Dream are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Melting Moment reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Wintergreen Dream.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
