Mandarin OrangeBenjamin MoorevsSensesJotunΔE 68.7Very different colors

Mandarin Orange (Benjamin Moore) and Senses (Jotun) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Mandarin Orange belongs to the beige family and Senses to the beige-greige family. The 5-point LRV gap — 46 for Mandarin Orange vs 41 for Senses — means Mandarin Orange will open up a space more effectively. Where Mandarin Orange leans red, Senses reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
