They share a red quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 3.2, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
