Aloe Vera vs Carolina Plum
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Aloe Vera reads as green, while Carolina Plum reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Aloe Vera (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Carolina Plum (LRV 27), a difference of 58 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Aloe Vera runs green while Carolina Plum is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 43.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
