Bittergreen vs Olivetone

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Bittergreen belongs to the beige-green family and Olivetone to the beige family. Olivetone (LRV 22) reflects noticeably more light than Bittergreen (LRV 18), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
