Mole's Breath vs Going Grey
Mole's Breath is a Farrow & Ball color while Going Grey comes from Sherwin-Williams. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. With LRVs of 24 and 22, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. They share a neutral quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. With a ΔE of 2.5, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
