Lilac Breeze vs Purple Dragon
Lilac Breeze and Purple Dragon come from the same PPG collection. These are both blue-purples, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-purple to land. The 7-point LRV gap — 62 for Lilac Breeze vs 55 for Purple Dragon — means Lilac Breeze will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 3.6 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
