October Mist vs Tree Moss

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. October Mist reads as grey, while Tree Moss reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (47 vs 47), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. October Mist runs warm while Tree Moss is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.3, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
