French Violet vs Nightfall Sky
French Violet and Nightfall Sky come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. French Violet reads as blue-grey, while Nightfall Sky reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 18 vs 15 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where French Violet leans blue, Nightfall Sky reads purple — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 6.6 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
