Dark blue paint

I’m trying to find a dark blue shade for my new bedroom.
i bought dulux sapphire salute but it looks more royal blue than the deep blue I wanted.
crown midnight navy looks similar to what I want but I’m not sure if it’ll come out the same as the dulux paint as it’s hard to judge by photos and small test areas.
can anyone suggest a nice blue please?

Have you tried them on the wall?

I have dulux sapphire salute as a feature wall and I hated it in the tin and when it first went on but the next day I'd completely changed my mind and now I love it! It's definitely not royal blue although I suspect what it looks like in each house will always depend on the lighting.

We have Indulgence from the Crafted by Crown range in our playroom and I love it. I’ll try and find a picture…

I'm looking for similar and have just ordered some samples from coat. They seem to have a big range in dark blues.

Dunelm have a few nice blues and you can get the stick on samples which help to see the colour without having to paint over! It’s surprisingly good paint

Little greene dock blue - a really rich dark blue.

Thanks everyone we have gone for crown indulgence. It looks lovely in your playroom cheepcheepcheep.
We painted half the room with sapphire salute and realised it wasn’t the shade we wanted so thankfully we have now found the one we like best.
