Sage Tint vs Soft Mint
Where Sage Tint belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Soft Mint is a Jotun color. These are both green-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-grey to land. Soft Mint (LRV 61) reflects noticeably more light than Sage Tint (LRV 58), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Sage Tint runs green while Soft Mint is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 3.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Sage Tint vs Soft Mint in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Sage Tint and Soft Mint are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The temperature contrast between Soft Mint and Sage Tint is what sets these apart most in this context.

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.
