Hint of Mint vs Icicle
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hint of Mint reads as yellow, while Icicle reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Icicle (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Hint of Mint (LRV 69), a difference of 13 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean yellow, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 7.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
