Background is too yellow #300

I'm using gruvbox-light (installed via Vundle). However, the background feels much too yellow for what I was expecting. (See attached screenshot.)

The configuration I am using is:

colorscheme gruvbox
set background=light
let g:gruvbox_contrast_light="hard"

Please help me understand what I'm doing wrong. I love the plugin except for the harsh yellow.

Could this be related to (2) on this page? https://github.com/morhetz/gruvbox/wiki/Terminal-specific

I had seen that wiki page. I'm using iTerm2 with a gruvbox light from gruvbox-contrib. I also have Vim 8.1.x. Not sure what other settings I need to make to get this right.

That's something in between of Vim and iTerm. NeoVim works properly with the same iTerm version at the moment, while Vim drops to 256 co. Frankly speaking I have no idea what's wrong.

Oh, and please be sure to have set termguicolors
