Frosty Mint vs Embellished Blue
Where Frosty Mint belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Embellished Blue is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both blue-greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-green to land. Frosty Mint (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Embellished Blue (LRV 79), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Frosty Mint runs green while Embellished Blue is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
