Admiral Blue vs Yellow Lilies
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Admiral Blue reads as blue, while Yellow Lilies reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Yellow Lilies (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Admiral Blue (LRV 6), a difference of 70 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Admiral Blue runs blue while Yellow Lilies is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 89.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
