Violet Pearl vs White Dove
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Violet Pearl belongs to the grey-purple family and White Dove to the beige-greige family.

Violet Pearl runs red while White Dove is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 11.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
