Cherished Gold vs Obsession

Cherished GoldDuluxvsObsessionPPGΔE 8.8Noticeable difference

Cherished Gold (Dulux) and Obsession (PPG) come from different manufacturers. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. The 5-point LRV gap — 35 for Cherished Gold vs 30 for Obsession — means Cherished Gold will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 8.8 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same 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.
