Looking for a replacement -

One of my favorite all time lip colors is a discontinued color by Bobbi Brown. Lip Sheer in Plum. I am asking on the outside chance that someone might be familiar with it & be able to suggest a replacement from SN's current offerings. It was a cool based plum with no brown & no shimmer. Even though it was a lip sheer a better description would be almost a lipstick.
It was one of those colors that you can put on & it perks up your whole face. Any suggestions to dupe this are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm not familiar with that color, other than what I see online, but Karen has nice plum colors. You could check those specific ones and decide for yourself:
Fig Leaf- Nude Plum Matte Solid Gloss
Figment- nudish copper plum shimmer
Bobbi- light nude plum with gold pearl VLG
Those are the plums I currently see listed. I own Bobbi and Figment, and they are very nice. I can't usually wear plum (totally 90's dark lip effect), but those two aren't all out there
It's worth browsing through the swatch thread on this forum (first one listed under Color Questions I think), unless someone can offer you a closer match based on experience.

Thanks so much for the suggestions egerandi! That was the great thing abt this color - it wasn't at all dark just 2-3 shades darker than MLBB. I've drooled my way through the swatch thread!

Time to get serious - *heading back to swatch thread with pen & paper*
