Millionaire vs Butterscotch
Where Millionaire belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Butterscotch is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Millionaire (LRV 29) reflects noticeably more light than Butterscotch (LRV 25), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Millionaire vs Butterscotch in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Millionaire and Butterscotch are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — Millionaire gives the walls a little more lift.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Millionaire reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
