What colour are my walls?

I need some paint expert eyes!
My living room walls are a lovely green colour, but I don’t know what shade it is, which is causing endless frustration.
I’ve painted a swatch of Overtly Olive next to it, but that’s a long way off. It’s hard to capture on camera. It’s not quite as muted as it appears in the pictures.
Any ideas?

Something with sage in the title maybe?

Laughingravy · 12/06/2023 13:01

Yep pale pastel green.

Dulux app thinks it is Fragrant Herb. Or Green Glade when it takes it from the more shaded part of the photo

I shall go and get those as samples…
I have so many paint samples at home, I could probably paint the whole house with them!

Do you have Overtly Olive on your walls? I do, I know what it looks like which is why I went to the bother of responding.

NorthFaceofthelaundrypile · 12/06/2023 13:24

The cardboard swatch has OO on it, so def not that. But it was my first guess until I saw them together.
the colour is actually closer to the colour of your own comments on MN.

Dulux tranquil dawn? It's in our living room and looks very different in different lights.

But OP has painted a sample of Overtly Olive and says (and shows in the photo) that it's not that. In the OP.

Dulux sage green? Have it in my bedroom and it looks similar.

Vintagecreamandcottagepie · 12/06/2023 14:18

It's tranquil dawn

Somanysocks · 12/06/2023 14:20

Dulux Willow Tree?

Raeven · 12/06/2023 15:16

Dulux Willow Tree?(on the right of the picture) though my picture makes it look pale compared to Dulux Proud Peacock on feature wall

Excuse edges work in progress 😁

When I’ve put samples next to it, it’s quite bright.
I thought I’d struck gold with Breakfast Room Green by F&B, but that’s a bit too bright.
It’s less muddy than OO. Though I do really like OO, we used to have it on our old stairs, and I think it’s probably what I’m going to go for.
I wish I Could just chip some
paunt off and match it like that
