Purple Essence is a very light, cool blue — refined in tone, with cleanly balanced undertones. With an LRV of 85, it lends a tranquil quality to any room, from master bedrooms to spa-like bathrooms. For a cross-brand equivalent, Dunn-Edwards's Chill in the Air is an extremely close match. Vista Paint's Little Cutie runs close as well. Balance its cool character with warm neutrals on adjacent surfaces, or embrace the chill with blue-gray accents.
