Sojourn Blue vs Mizzle
Sojourn Blue (Behr) and Mizzle (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Sojourn Blue belongs to the blue family and Mizzle to the grey family. The 39-point LRV gap — 52 for Mizzle vs 13 for Sojourn Blue — means Mizzle will open up a space more effectively. Where Sojourn Blue leans blue, Mizzle reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 43.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Sojourn Blue vs Mizzle in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. Seeing Sojourn Blue and Mizzle in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Mizzle reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Sojourn Blue.
Bathroom
Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Mizzle returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Front Door
On a front door, the color is both the first and last thing you see — a context where even a modest tonal difference reads clearly. Mizzle reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Sojourn Blue.
Kitchen Cabinets
Cabinet color is always seen in context — against countertops, backsplash, and hardware — which amplifies undertone differences that might disappear on a plain wall. Mizzle returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Sojourn Blue vs Mizzle Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Sojourn Blue on one side and Mizzle on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
