Green Tea vs Leaflet

Green TeaJotunvsLeafletSherwin-WilliamsΔE 7.4Noticeable difference

Green Tea is a Jotun color while Leaflet comes from Sherwin-Williams. Green Tea reads as beige-green, while Leaflet reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. With LRVs of 32 and 30, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Green Tea's warm character against Leaflet's neutral — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 7.4, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
