Byzantine Gold vs Caramel Apple
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Byzantine Gold reads as beige, while Caramel Apple reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Byzantine Gold (LRV 26) reflects noticeably more light than Caramel Apple (LRV 22), a difference of 4 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 6.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
