Amorous vs Cement Gray
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. Cement Gray (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Amorous (LRV 27), a difference of 33 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Amorous runs purple while Cement Gray is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 25.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Amorous on one side and Cement Gray on the other.
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.
