Stanhope Yellow vs Buttermilk
Where Stanhope Yellow belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Buttermilk is a Dulux color. Stanhope Yellow reads as beige-yellow, while Buttermilk reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Buttermilk (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Stanhope Yellow (LRV 72), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Stanhope Yellow runs yellow while Buttermilk is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
