Bengal Grass vs Dusted Olive
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Dusted Olive (LRV 40) reflects noticeably more light than Bengal Grass (LRV 19), a difference of 21 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 19.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
