Soft Chamois vs Merino
Soft Chamois is a Benjamin Moore color while Merino comes from Tikkurila. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. At LRV 77 vs 74, Soft Chamois will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. With a ΔE of 1.9, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
