Notre Dame vs Lamp Black
Where Notre Dame belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Lamp Black is a Little Greene color. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Notre Dame (LRV 8) reflects noticeably more light than Lamp Black (LRV 3), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Notre Dame runs blue while Lamp Black is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
