Victorian Mauve vs X478
Where Victorian Mauve belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, X478 is a Tikkurila color. Victorian Mauve reads as grey, while X478 reads as pink — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. X478 (LRV 51) reflects noticeably more light than Victorian Mauve (LRV 48), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 3.0, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
