Senora Gray vs Green Ivy
Senora Gray (Benjamin Moore) and Green Ivy (Dulux) come from different manufacturers. Senora Gray reads as beige-greige, while Green Ivy reads as green-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 48 vs 49 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Senora Gray leans yellow, Green Ivy reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 2.8 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Senora Gray vs Green Ivy in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Senora Gray and Green Ivy 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
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. At this scale the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side, as shown here, to reliably tell them apart.
Dining Room
Dining rooms often rely on warm incandescent or candlelight, which flatters warm undertones and mutes cool ones. The two are close enough that the choice comes down to finer qualities — undertone, texture, what the color sits next to.
House
A full exterior is the most demanding test for a paint color — scale and outdoor light both amplify differences that seem small on a swatch. In photos like these you're seeing the difference at its most direct. In a finished room, the distinction is there but not dramatic.

Senora Gray vs Green Ivy Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Senora Gray on one side and Green Ivy 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.
