Crocus vs Denim Drift
Where Crocus belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Denim Drift is a Dulux color. Crocus reads as blue-purple, while Denim Drift reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Crocus (LRV 43) reflects noticeably more light than Denim Drift (LRV 27), a difference of 16 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Crocus runs purple while Denim Drift is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 20.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
