Rainforest Dew vs Soft Apple
Where Rainforest Dew belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Soft Apple is a Dulux color. Hue-wise, Rainforest Dew belongs to the beige-yellow family and Soft Apple to the yellow family. Soft Apple (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Rainforest Dew (LRV 74), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Rainforest Dew runs yellow while Soft Apple is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 5.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
