Vivid White vs Classic White
Where Vivid White belongs to Dulux's range, Classic White is a Jotun color. Vivid White reads as white-yellow, while Classic White reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Vivid White (LRV 93) reflects noticeably more light than Classic White (LRV 86), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 3.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
