Need Grey Paint That Doesn't Go Violet. Help Please!

All of the trim in my house is BM November Rain. You can check it out in the picture below. Unfortunately, the undertone of the trim tends to morph all of my pretty grey and greige samples, purple. Any recommendations for a grey that won't come out violet (or blue)?



Below you can see that I tried Revere Pewter and Repose Grey and how blue/violet they turned out. Here they are tested on the purple wall (4th over from the right, Revere Pewter, strip on the bottom Repose Grey)



I also tried them on the peach wall. I kinda like them on the purple wall better, but hate them on the peach wall (I'm sure its a bit of the peach that is throwing me off, but still scared it will end up this color).

Repose Grey on the left, Revere Pewter on the right:

Would love any tips you may have for me.

Thanks!
