Mythical vs Soulmate

Mythical and Soulmate come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Mythical reads as blue-grey, while Soulmate reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 20 vs 20 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Mythical leans cool, Soulmate reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 11.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
