Intense White vs Violet Sparkle
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Intense White belongs to the greige-grey family and Violet Sparkle to the blue-grey family. Intense White (LRV 73) reflects noticeably more light than Violet Sparkle (LRV 69), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Intense White runs yellow while Violet Sparkle is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
