    They're barely decipherable in terms of colour intensity.

    Timeless looks white on walls. Jasmine White kind of gives away its shade on the tin.

    Buy tester pots! Or even cut the squares out of the Dulux brochure and put them next to each other. At this point it's really about what looks better on the walls. No one is going to think either of those is exactly intense :o

    Do you have the brochure? Cut them out and put them next to each other.

    They both look white. There's just ever so slightly different hints of colour in there.

    What you're saying is equivalent to taking the palest pink and the palest blue and saying you want the closest to white. They're both as close to white as each other, especially once one is on the wall, but they have different tones.

    You should be looking for what compliments the room. Whatever is sitting next to it.

    Timeless looks like more like a flat white. Jasmine looks more like it has a hint of *something* but not much.

    If what you want is white without harshness or colour, then Timeless is the colour.

    I'd still be buying at least two tester pots for the walls. You can't get the feel of it from anywhere else.
