The tempered minor third is about 15.6 cents narrower than 6:5, a slightly larger error than the major third's and in the other direction.

The two notes beat about 2.4 times a second on this lower note, against the major third's 2.2. Whether that reads as dark or merely different is taste; the 15.64 cents is arithmetic. Minor third (Wikipedia, CC BY-SA).
