Lavish Lavender vs Leaflet

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Lavish Lavender reads as purple, while Leaflet reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Leaflet (LRV 30) reflects noticeably more light than Lavish Lavender (LRV 22), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Lavish Lavender runs cool while Leaflet is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 47.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
