Ashes of Roses vs Cabernet
Where Ashes of Roses belongs to Little Greene's range, Cabernet is a PPG color. These are both pinks, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (15 vs 14), so they'll read as similarly Dark in most lighting conditions. The ΔE 9.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
