Serenely vs H496
Serenely is a Sherwin-Williams color while H496 comes from Tikkurila. Both sit in the blue-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. With LRVs of 66 and 67, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 2.1, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.

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.
