Fossil vs Cream
Where Fossil belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Cream is a RAL Classic color. Fossil reads as beige-greige, while Cream reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Cream (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Fossil (LRV 72), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 1.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Fossil vs Cream Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Fossil on one side and Cream on the other.
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.
