Mistletoe vs Mizzle
Where Mistletoe belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Mizzle is a Farrow & Ball color. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. Mizzle (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Mistletoe (LRV 30), a difference of 21 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Mistletoe runs green and yellow while Mizzle is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 17.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
