Dark Linen vs Tender Shoot
Dark Linen is a Benjamin Moore color while Tender Shoot comes from Cloverdale Paint. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. With LRVs of 80 and 81, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 1.9, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
