Gray Mirage vs French Gray
Where Gray Mirage belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, French Gray is a Farrow & Ball color. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Gray Mirage (LRV 54) reflects noticeably more light than French Gray (LRV 43), a difference of 11 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Gray Mirage runs yellow while French Gray is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 7.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
