Gentle Butterfly vs Love & Happiness
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Gentle Butterfly belongs to the beige-pink family and Love & Happiness to the beige family. Gentle Butterfly (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Love & Happiness (LRV 72), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 7.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
