Sweet Cream vs Violet Mist
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Sweet Cream belongs to the beige-yellow family and Violet Mist to the blue-purple family. Sweet Cream (LRV 78) reflects noticeably more light than Violet Mist (LRV 62), a difference of 16 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Sweet Cream runs yellow while Violet Mist is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 22.1, the contrast is hard to miss.
