Summer Shower vs Senses
Where Summer Shower belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Senses is a Jotun color. Summer Shower reads as blue, while Senses reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Summer Shower (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Senses (LRV 41), a difference of 28 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Summer Shower runs blue while Senses is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 24.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
