Iris Isle vs Violet Hush
Both from PPG's palette. Iris Isle reads as purple, while Violet Hush reads as purple-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Iris Isle (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Violet Hush (LRV 77), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 1.5, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
