Senses vs Blue Iris
Senses (Jotun) and Blue Iris (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Senses reads as beige-greige, while Blue Iris reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 32-point LRV gap — 73 for Blue Iris vs 41 for Senses — means Blue Iris will open up a space more effectively. Where Senses leans warm, Blue Iris reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 23.6 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
