Citronée vs Cloud White
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Citronée reads as beige-yellow, while Cloud White reads as beige-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Cloud White (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Citronée (LRV 81), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Citronée runs warm while Cloud White is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.0 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.
