Pale Smoke vs Touch of Spring
Where Pale Smoke belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Touch of Spring is a Valspar color. Pale Smoke reads as blue-green, while Touch of Spring reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Touch of Spring (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Pale Smoke (LRV 64), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
