Blue Note vs Mystical Powers

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Blue Note belongs to the blue-grey family and Mystical Powers to the beige family. Mystical Powers (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Blue Note (LRV 9), a difference of 71 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Blue Note runs blue while Mystical Powers is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 63.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
