Icicle vs October Mist

IcicleBenjamin MoorevsOctober MistBenjamin MooreΔE 20.0 — Distinct difference

Icicle and October Mist come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Icicle belongs to the beige-greige family and October Mist to the grey family. The 36-point LRV gap — 82 for Icicle vs 47 for October Mist — means Icicle will open up a space more effectively. Both share a yellow character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 20.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
