Grey Mist vs Sagey
Grey Mist and Sagey come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 75 vs 75 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Grey Mist leans warm, Sagey reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 3.3 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
