Bohemian Earth vs Mizzle
Bohemian Earth (Cloverdale Paint) and Mizzle (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Bohemian Earth belongs to the greige-grey family and Mizzle to the green-grey family. The 8-point LRV gap — 52 for Mizzle vs 44 for Bohemian Earth — means Mizzle will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 6.5 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Bohemian Earth vs Mizzle in Real Spaces
5 real rooms side by side. Bohemian Earth and Mizzle 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. Mizzle reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
Bedroom
Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Mizzle has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Mizzle has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
Dining Room
Dining rooms often rely on warm incandescent or candlelight, which flatters warm undertones and mutes cool ones. The brightness difference is modest but present — Mizzle gives the walls a little more lift.
Bathroom
Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Mizzle has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Bohemian Earth vs Mizzle Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Bohemian Earth on one side and Mizzle 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.
