Variety: chaozhou

Meanings and usage

adjective: fragrant; sweet-smelling; rich in aroma
郁

The character carries several unrelated senses (fragrant, surname, alt-of 彧/薁/燠, stoneless fruit) under one general reading, and the given peng'im is not tied to a specific sense, so 'fragrant' was chosen as the most salient character meaning.
