Senses vs Woad
Senses (Jotun) and Woad (Little Greene) come from different manufacturers. Senses reads as beige-greige, while Woad reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 30-point LRV gap — 41 for Senses vs 12 for Woad — means Senses will open up a space more effectively. Where Senses leans warm, Woad reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 45.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Senses vs Woad in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Seeing Senses and Woad 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. Senses reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Woad.
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. Senses 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.
