Deep Mauve vs Mountain Mist
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Deep Mauve belongs to the pink family and Mountain Mist to the blue-grey family. Mountain Mist (LRV 71) reflects noticeably more light than Deep Mauve (LRV 20), a difference of 51 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Deep Mauve runs red while Mountain Mist is decidedly green and blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 42.5, 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.
