How they read
In their own wordsRococo is a lime wash colour from Portola Paints, which describes it simply as "a muted cool eucalyptus".
Aegean Olive is a deep, grayed olive that sits closer to bronze and khaki than to anything leafy. With an LRV just under 12 it behaves like a dark neutral: it wraps a room, dissolves corners and makes cane, rattan and aged brass look expensive. It is the green you choose when you do not want the room to read as green.
