Exotic Purple vs Lime Accent
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Exotic Purple reads as purple, while Lime Accent reads as green-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Lime Accent (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Exotic Purple (LRV 5), a difference of 76 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Exotic Purple runs purple while Lime Accent is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 78.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
