Amber
Amber comes in a variety of hues, causing both controversy and confusion over the similar color topaz.  Adding to that confusion is the fact that within the amber color family is the specific hue named Carem Gorem, also known as Carn Gorm.  The distinction between amber and topaz is subtle and many people are unable to see the difference between  the two colors.  Amber tends to be more on the brown side, whereas topaz has a slight greenish tint, similar to light olive oil.
