Hemlock vs Wispy Pink

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Hemlock belongs to the blue family and Wispy Pink to the pink-red family. Wispy Pink (LRV 78) reflects noticeably more light than Hemlock (LRV 29), a difference of 50 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Hemlock runs blue while Wispy Pink is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 37.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
