Rose Bark vs Mizzle

Rose BarkDuluxvsMizzleFarrow & BallΔE 36.3Very different colors

Rose Bark (Dulux) and Mizzle (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 36-point LRV gap — 52 for Mizzle vs 16 for Rose Bark — means Mizzle will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 36.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Rose Bark vs Mizzle in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Seeing Rose Bark and Mizzle in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.

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 reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Rose Bark.

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 returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

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.
