Crème Caramel vs Barley Twist
Where Crème Caramel belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Barley Twist is a Dulux color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Barley Twist (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Crème Caramel (LRV 73), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 2.4, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
