Marzipan vs Ivory
Where Marzipan belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Ivory is a RAL Classic color. Both sit in the beige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Marzipan (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Ivory (LRV 58), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
