Mascarpone vs Evergreen Fog

MascarponeBenjamin MoorevsEvergreen FogSherwin-WilliamsΔE 35.0Very different colors

Mascarpone (Benjamin Moore) and Evergreen Fog (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Mascarpone belongs to the beige-yellow family and Evergreen Fog to the green-grey family. The 59-point LRV gap — 89 for Mascarpone vs 30 for Evergreen Fog — means Mascarpone will open up a space more effectively. Where Mascarpone leans yellow, Evergreen Fog reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 35.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Mascarpone vs Evergreen Fog in Real Spaces

3 real rooms side by side. Seeing Mascarpone and Evergreen Fog in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.

Living Room

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Mascarpone reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Evergreen Fog.

Kitchen

Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Mascarpone returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Kitchen Cabinets

Cabinet color is always seen in context — against countertops, backsplash, and hardware — which amplifies undertone differences that might disappear on a plain wall. Mascarpone returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

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.
