Almost Black vs Night Mist
Almost Black and Night Mist come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Almost Black belongs to the grey family and Night Mist to the green-grey family. The 54-point LRV gap — 63 for Night Mist vs 9 for Almost Black — means Night Mist will open up a space more effectively. Where Almost Black leans blue and purple, Night Mist reads green — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 51.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Digital color is approximate.
