Nostalgia vs Fading Rose
Nostalgia is a PPG color while Fading Rose comes from Sherwin-Williams. These are both pinks, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink to land. At LRV 55 vs 52, Fading Rose will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. With a ΔE of 1.8, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
