Salmon Mousse vs Agreeable Gray
Where Salmon Mousse belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Agreeable Gray is a Sherwin-Williams color. Salmon Mousse reads as beige-pink, while Agreeable Gray reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Agreeable Gray (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Salmon Mousse (LRV 42), a difference of 18 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Salmon Mousse runs red while Agreeable Gray is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 22.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
