Moon Shadow vs Mizzle

Moon ShadowBenjamin MoorevsMizzleFarrow & BallΔE 5.9Noticeable difference

Where Moon Shadow belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Mizzle is a Farrow & Ball color. Moon Shadow reads as beige-greige, while Mizzle reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Moon Shadow (LRV 57) reflects noticeably more light than Mizzle (LRV 52), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Moon Shadow runs yellow while Mizzle is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 5.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
