Burnt Ember vs Comet
Burnt Ember and Comet come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Burnt Ember reads as grey, while Comet reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 21-point LRV gap — 36 for Comet vs 16 for Burnt Ember — means Comet will open up a space more effectively. Where Burnt Ember leans red, Comet reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 23.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
