Golden Retriever vs Pumpkin Spice
Where Golden Retriever belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Pumpkin Spice is a PPG color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Golden Retriever (LRV 29) reflects noticeably more light than Pumpkin Spice (LRV 25), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
