Spanish Moss vs Intrigue

Spanish MossBenjamin MoorevsIntriguePPGΔE 2.0Subtle difference

Where Spanish Moss belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Intrigue is a PPG color. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. Intrigue (LRV 10) reflects noticeably more light than Spanish Moss (LRV 0), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.0, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
