Fairy Tale Blue vs Falcon Brown

Fairy Tale Blue (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Falcon Brown (LRV 9), a difference of 43 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Fairy Tale Blue runs blue while Falcon Brown is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 55.5, the contrast is hard to miss.
