Allegory vs Green Earth
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Hue-wise, Allegory belongs to the grey family and Green Earth to the green-greige family.

The tonal difference — Allegory's neutral character against Green Earth's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 12.1, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.
