Soft Brown vs Salted Pretzel
Soft Brown is a Jotun color while Salted Pretzel comes from PPG. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. At LRV 19 vs 16, Soft Brown will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 3.9, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
