Irises vs Sage Tint
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Irises reads as blue-grey, while Sage Tint reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Sage Tint (LRV 58) reflects noticeably more light than Irises (LRV 26), a difference of 32 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Irises runs blue while Sage Tint is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 28.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Irises vs Sage Tint Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Irises on one side and Sage Tint 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.
