Mazarine vs Traffic blue
Where Mazarine belongs to Little Greene's range, Traffic blue is a RAL Classic color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Traffic blue (LRV 11) reflects noticeably more light than Mazarine (LRV 8), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 5.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
