Citron vs Sunlight
Where Citron belongs to Farrow & Ball's range, Sunlight is a Little Greene color. Hue-wise, Citron belongs to the beige family and Sunlight to the beige-yellow family. Citron (LRV 65) reflects noticeably more light than Sunlight (LRV 58), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Citron runs warm while Sunlight is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
