Potentially Purple vs Spangle
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Potentially Purple belongs to the blue-purple family and Spangle to the pink-purple family. Spangle (LRV 73) reflects noticeably more light than Potentially Purple (LRV 62), a difference of 11 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
