Cleopatra's Gown vs Royal Lilac
Both from PPG's palette. These are both purples, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within purple to land. Royal Lilac (LRV 15) reflects noticeably more light than Cleopatra's Gown (LRV 12), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
