First Snowfall vs Iced Slate
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. First Snowfall reads as blue-grey, while Iced Slate reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. First Snowfall (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Iced Slate (LRV 58), a difference of 16 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.3 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.
