White DoveBenjamin MoorevsVert De TerreFarrow & BallΔE 20.7Distinct difference

Where White Dove belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Vert De Terre is a Farrow & Ball color.

White Dove (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Vert De Terre (LRV 46), a difference of 37 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. White Dove runs yellow while Vert De Terre is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 20.7, the contrast is hard to miss.
