Brilliant Blue vs Dove Wing
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Brilliant Blue reads as blue, while Dove Wing reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Dove Wing (LRV 78) reflects noticeably more light than Brilliant Blue (LRV 15), a difference of 63 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Brilliant Blue runs blue while Dove Wing is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 70.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
