Fresh Mint vs Sea Mist
Fresh Mint (Benjamin Moore) and Sea Mist (PPG) come from different manufacturers. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. The 3-point LRV gap — 84 for Fresh Mint vs 81 for Sea Mist — means Fresh Mint will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 3.4 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
