Amazon Soil vs Evergreen Fog
Where Amazon Soil belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Evergreen Fog is a Sherwin-Williams color. Amazon Soil reads as grey, while Evergreen Fog reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Evergreen Fog (LRV 30) reflects noticeably more light than Amazon Soil (LRV 13), a difference of 17 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Amazon Soil runs red while Evergreen Fog is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 24.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below you'll find 7 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

7 real rooms side by side. Seeing Amazon Soil and Evergreen Fog in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Evergreen Fog will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Amazon Soil would.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Evergreen Fog reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Amazon Soil.

Front Door
A front door is a focal point — small color differences read clearly at this concentrated scale. The LRV gap is large enough that Evergreen Fog will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Amazon Soil would.
