Caribbean Sunset vs Iris Bliss

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Caribbean Sunset belongs to the pink family and Iris Bliss to the grey family. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (35 vs 34), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Caribbean Sunset runs red while Iris Bliss is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
