Violet Shadow vs Minuet
Violet Shadow (PPG) and Minuet (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. These are both blue-purples, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-purple to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 65 for Violet Shadow vs 61 for Minuet — means Violet Shadow will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 4.1 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

Digital color is approximate.
