Floral White vs Barely Pear
Where Floral White belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Barely Pear is a Sherwin-Williams color. Hue-wise, Floral White belongs to the beige-white family and Barely Pear to the beige-yellow family. Barely Pear (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Floral White (LRV 80), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Floral White runs yellow while Barely Pear is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources.
