Eco wood paint

Hi
Has anyone used an eco wood paint such as Auro? It seems it's not possible to create a brilliant white in an eco paint, so the only white is described as a "warm" white. I am wondering how this would look on windows, doors, skirtings etc. We currently have an Edwardian house and was thinking the standard brilliant white gloss on these surfaces. Am nervous about a warm white so wondered if anyone had experience of this and what the outcome looked like. Would it affect choice of wall colour?
Thanks!

I have used ecos before and it was a fairly bright white. I'm not a fan of pbw in older buildings anyway. It didn't look yellow or grey or noticeable in any way

Ok thanks for replying. I think we are going to go with a standard paint on the window I was thinking of as it's a wooden window over a bath with a shower so gets wet a lot. Will consider trying the eco for other windows. Have seen some lovely pics of windows done in stone or grey so that might be an idea in some of the other rooms too.

Ah ok, makes sense. Check out Edward Bulmer too as their wood paints get good reviews I believe and are apparently more natural than some... I'm trying to find a good white for woodwork right now hence finding your thread!
