Farrow and Ball colour matching? As good?

I am in the midst of a never ending home renovation.... one that keeps stopping and starting as we run out of budget. it is about to ground to a halt again but after the plasterers have been so i have some wall to paint! Thing is its hallways. When the downstairs was done we use Farrow and Ball paint because I love the fact you can touch it up without painting a whole wall. But now we are on to going up the stairs and into the upstairs halls and I don't have the budget for F&B I don't think. it is a huge area. Do we think I could colour match and it wouldn't be noticeable or do I have to wait? What are other people's experience with pale F&B colour matched paints? I've had bad experiences with v dark exterior ones....

Brewers Albany colour matching for F&B is brilliant 👍🏼 just done our whole house and the colours are absolutely spot on. Not all the branches do F&B though

Ok but not great for us...i got cooking apple and the copy just too pale /didn't have depth...so got a tin of the real stuff on top...so cheaper as otherstuff good base ..
White was ok but not as subtle ..
Bold colours seem to been better!

I found it depends in what bade you use. I get coloured ceramic matt in F and B colour and it's wonderful.
I used a cheaper paint before and it wasn't any good.
Colour trend is expensive too but I used it because I d used farrow and ball throughout the house and I found I could touch up or wipe it. .colour wise fab but with 3 small kids it wasn't working for us.
Same with their wood paint, I mixed colour trend to the white I wanted because the real deal chipped and yellowed.
