La Paloma Gray vs Warm Truffle

La Paloma GrayBenjamin MoorevsWarm TruffleDuluxΔE 1.3Subtle difference

Where La Paloma Gray belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Warm Truffle is a Dulux color. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (46 vs 46), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. La Paloma Gray runs red while Warm Truffle is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 1.3, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

La Paloma Gray vs Warm Truffle in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. La Paloma Gray and Warm Truffle are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The two are close enough that the choice comes down to finer qualities — undertone, texture, what the color sits next to.

House

Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. At this scale the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side, as shown here, to reliably tell them apart.
