The colour temperature is one measurement and is a good guide to the colour, warm white, white, bright white and daylight.
The other indicator is the "Colour rendering index" CRI
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_rendering_index
It is a measurement of the spectra of the light and an incandescent source is considered to be 100. So you could buy a LED or fluorescent lamp with a high or lower CRI. A lamp with a low CRI will not render colours very well and look peculiar.

Fluorescent tubes have all this marked on the tube, Colour temperature and a guide to the CRI often a figure like 841, CRI 85 colour 4100°K
