Coral Pink vs Cherry Plum

Coral PinkBenjamin MoorevsCherry PlumDuluxΔE 15.5Distinct difference

Where Coral Pink belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Cherry Plum is a Dulux color. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. Coral Pink (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Cherry Plum (LRV 33), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Coral Pink runs red while Cherry Plum is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 15.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
