Dark Clove vs Tarragon

Dark Clove and Tarragon come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Dark Clove reads as beige-greige, while Tarragon reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 5 vs 7 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Dark Clove leans warm, Tarragon reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 17.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
