The difference
Read from the numbersCoral Spice is the lighter of the two at LRV 43.46, 3.5 points above Monet at LRV 39.98. Both read warm. Coral Spice is a orange, Monet a pink. For a whole room, Coral Spice is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Monet is the bolder pick.
How they read
In their own wordsCoral Spice 2170-40 is a mid-tone coral from Benjamin Moore's Color Preview collection, which the brand describes as "a vivacious shade of coral with a feel-good vibe". Its LRV is 43.46.
Monet is a dusty, mauve-leaning pink with a beige base — a rose that has softened into something closer to lilac. At LRV 40 it is a real mid-tone, dark enough to feel enveloping in a small room and light enough to keep a powder room from going gloomy.
