Green Hydrangea vs Luxe

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Green Hydrangea reads as beige-green, while Luxe reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Green Hydrangea (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Luxe (LRV 22), a difference of 34 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Green Hydrangea runs yellow while Luxe is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 53.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
