Mirage vs S 1502-Y50R
Mirage (Tikkurila) and S 1502-Y50R (NCS) come from different manufacturers. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 62 vs 62 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. A ΔE of 0.4 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
Mirage vs S 1502-Y50R 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.

Mirage vs S 1502-Y50R in Real Spaces
Mirage and S 1502-Y50R 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 1 room type where both colors have photos.
Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. In photos like these you're seeing the difference at its most direct. In a finished room, the distinction is there but not dramatic.
