How we found these dupes
Every colour is converted to the perceptual CIE-Lab space and compared with the CIEDE2000 metric (Sharma 2005 reference), the same one the industry uses to assess colour accuracy. We show a single dupe per brand, ordered from the closest match. The thresholds: ΔE ≤ 2 practically identical, ≤ 3.5 excellent, ≤ 5 good. Prices, where comparable in the same currency, give the estimated saving.
