Amorous vs Distant Gray

Amorous and Distant Gray come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Amorous belongs to the grey family and Distant Gray to the green-grey family. The 61-point LRV gap — 88 for Distant Gray vs 27 for Amorous — means Distant Gray will open up a space more effectively. Where Amorous leans purple, Distant Gray reads green — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 39.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
