MamboLittle GreenevsBell HeatherPPGΔE 26.0Very different colors

Mambo is a Little Greene color while Bell Heather comes from PPG. Mambo reads as blue, while Bell Heather reads as purple — two distinct hue families, not close cousins.

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.
