Darker than Timeless lighter than Magnolia?

Do you know of any Dulux colours that you would recommend that are slightly darker than Timeless? We have Magnolia in our lounge and the Timeless patch we've done looks too white in comparison (we want lighter and less creamy than Magnolia but not white looking) Got to make quick decision as decorator coming this week. It's to go with Dulux Muted Sage recesses. Would Jasmine White or Almond White fit the bill? Thanks!

3rd natural calico vote. We had timeless in the lounge, calico in the bedroom.

Natural calico was recommended to me by a decorator freind, it's worked well here.

For a different colour we've just used Ivory Lace which is lovely.

Egyptian Cotton is one of my default colours. It's greyer than Timeless and less yellow-pink then Magnolia. Or Lime White in Little Greene if you want eco-friendly... v similar.

same dilemma....except decorator only using crown paints!!! Mellow sage feature wall....need a creamy/off white colour for remaining walls and then a different offwhite in eggshell for fireplace surround and woodwork!

Thinking of soft linen on walls and lime wash on woodwork? would this work?

Jasmine White. Also go for matt not silk.

I second eyptian cotton. It feels warm but neutral, it's not too creamy but not sure if it'll match your sage. You could email dulux and see what they suggest. They are pretty good really
