Molasses Cookie vs Paddle Wheel
Both are PPG colors. Molasses Cookie reads as beige, while Paddle Wheel reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. With LRVs of 17 and 17, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 2.1, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
