One match per brand, ranked by ΔE — a perceptual color difference score calculated from Lab color space values. Lower is closer. Click any card to compare side by side in simulated rooms.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 23 vs 23), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 0.0 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
A 3-point LRV gap (23 vs 20) makes Purple Haze the marginally brighter of the two. A ΔE of 1.9 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
A 4-point LRV gap (23 vs 20) makes Purple Haze the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 4.0 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
A 5-point LRV gap (23 vs 18) makes Purple Haze the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 5.5 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 23 vs 22), so neither reads brighter in a room. The ΔE 6.4 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
With LRVs of 24 and 23, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 7.0 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
A 6-point LRV gap (23 vs 18) makes Purple Haze the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 7.5 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
At ΔE 7.6 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.

Purple Haze reads slightly lighter (LRV 23 vs 19), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 7.8 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 23 vs 22), so neither reads brighter in a room. The ΔE 8.3 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
With LRVs of 25 and 23, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 8.4 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
Purple Haze reads slightly lighter (LRV 23 vs 16), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 8.6 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
Purple Haze reads slightly lighter (LRV 23 vs 14), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 13.5 these are two genuinely different directions, not variations on a theme.
