Help with Exterior Colors on 1931 Spanish/Mediterranean

We've tried probably 8 different trim colors and a couple different body colors. We are fairly sure we want a white for the body. Something that isn't primer bright but also doesn't look like dingy yellow. For trim, we've tried a number of blues and greens and nothing has sold us. The darker of the two blues in the photo is FB Stiffkey Blue. The lighter (and too bright in person) blue is SW Blue Cruise. Other FB colors we've tried are Oval Room Blue, Pigeon, Railings, and Cooks Blue. We like the classic Spanish homes with white stucco and either a light blue or green with some gray to dull it out a bit but haven't been able to get one that works. Our roof tiles are Terra Cotta from Redlands Tile, so they're fairly orange.

If you have any specific maker (we're in Socal with good access to most brands) and colors, we'd really appreciate your input on body and trim colors.

I've tried to attach a photo. Hopefully it works. We've trimmed the bougainvillea and will be putting a double wood gate below the arch. In photoshop, we've tried keeping the garage door white and think it may look better, but I haven't got around to doing it. We may also replace the front concrete with some old brick. Thank you for your suggestions.
