Every room, each colorThe difference
Read from the numbersChantilly Lace is the lighter of the two at LRV 90.04, 4 points above Extra White at LRV 86. Chantilly Lace leans cool-neutral where Extra White reads cool. Both belong to the whites family. For a whole room, Chantilly Lace is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Extra White is the bolder pick.
How they read
In their own wordsChantilly Lace (OC-65) is the brightest, crispest white in Benjamin Moore's lineup, with an LRV around 90 and an almost-neutral undertone that carries only the faintest cool edge. It reads as a clean, pure white in nearly any light.
Extra White is a bright, slightly cool white — the closest Sherwin-Williams gets to a gallery wall. At LRV 86 it is crisp and reflective, with a faint blue-grey lean that keeps it clean rather than creamy. It is the white for architecture: plaster reliefs, coffered ceilings, a bank of steel windows.
