Mizzle vs Reflection
Mizzle (Farrow & Ball) and Reflection (Jotun) come from different manufacturers. Mizzle reads as grey, while Reflection reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 30-point LRV gap — 81 for Reflection vs 52 for Mizzle — means Reflection 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 15.0 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.
Mizzle vs Reflection in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Seeing Mizzle and Reflection 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. Reflection reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Mizzle.
Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Reflection returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

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