Obscura vs Maiden Mist
Where Obscura belongs to Little Greene's range, Maiden Mist is a PPG color. These are both blue-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-grey to land. Obscura (LRV 55) reflects noticeably more light than Maiden Mist (LRV 52), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.3, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
