Apple Froth vs Sour Apple
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Apple Froth reads as green-yellow, while Sour Apple reads as yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (77 vs 76), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. Apple Froth runs green while Sour Apple is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
