Titanium vs Violet Dusk
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Titanium belongs to the greige-grey family and Violet Dusk to the blue-grey family. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (68 vs 70), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. Titanium runs yellow while Violet Dusk is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
