F&B oval room blue

Hi all
We are just finishing our loft conversion and are looking to paint it a different colour to the rest of our house which is magnolia at the moment (that’s another story and list of questions!)
It’s a very bright space and I have been taken in by the Pinterest photos using f&b oval room blue.
Has anyone got this in their house? Is it worth the money? How well does it last? It would be on 3 newly plastered and misted walls (one will be white with the velux in) and I’m concerned it might be a bit overwhelming but don’t really fancy grey in there (Although I do love it!!)
Any advice gratefully received.
Thanks

I had this in my last house - I loved it. I had it in a smal dark utility (I ran out of rooms and loved it so much I had to have it somewhere). I had it with anthracite glass tiles and a darkish oak. It was beautiful - lasted really well (including water splashes).

Just to add, I had Hardwick white in the equally dark room next to it - it was just like a blue tone of that, will be much lighter in a brighter room and you can always repaint if you hate it (you won’t - it really is beautiful - Or you could get a sample pot first)

Thanks for your advice - am planning on getting a tester pot when I am over a bug given to me by some nice person. We can’t try it in the loft room yet as it hasn’t been plastered and want to see it in all of the light up there so might try it on lining paper and see what it looks like.
Which emulsion did you go for? The modern or estate emulsion? Haven’t used F&B before but bam going to splash out!!!
