Some humans enjoy tetrachromacy. There's an article floating around where one such woman mentions that in her world she sees mismatched colors everywhere; colors that to everybody else look identical (e.g. on a shirt and pants, or two walls) but which to her look different, sometimes significantly. IIRC, the fourth spectrum peak isn't that far away from one of the others, so I assume this effect is probably exaggerated by artificial dyes that reflect in relatively narrow bands. EDIT: Here's the reported anecdote I was remembering: > "I have always had polite disagreements with people about shades of colours," she says. When clothes shopping for instance, she often finds that apparently matching tops and skirts seem to be a different shade to her, clashing horribly--even though no one else seems to notice it. Her sensitivity can sometimes be baffling to those around: when helping to restore a house, she once rejected 32 paint samples before settling on the right shade. "The beiges were too yellow and not blue enough, not cool enough; some of the almonds were too orangey," she says--distinctions that were much to the confusion of her building contractor. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20140905-the-women-with-super-human-vision https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20140905-the-women-with-s...
