Agreeable Gray vs Mizzle
Where Agreeable Gray belongs to Sherwin-Williams's range, Mizzle is a Farrow & Ball color. Agreeable Gray (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Mizzle (LRV 52), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 5.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
Agreeable Gray vs Mizzle Color Comparison
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.

Agreeable Gray vs Mizzle in Real Spaces
Agreeable Gray and Mizzle are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone. These real-room photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions. Showing 9 room types where both colors have photos.

Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Agreeable Gray returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
