What kind of flower is the orchid in a woman's eyes?
"Huangdinghe" is rich and dignified. It should be a hybrid variety, and its fragrance is probably average.

More than two thousand years ago, Confucius encountered an orchid by chance in a secluded valley, called the orchid the "fragrance of kings," and wrote "Yi Lan Cao," which has been recited to this day. Qu Yuan wore orchids as ornaments and expressed his feelings through orchids, making the orchid a symbol of spiritual character. Wang Xizhi applied the varied, well-arranged postures of orchid leaves to his calligraphy, leaving the famous "Preface to the Poems Collected from the Orchid Pavilion" for the world... These beautiful stories after beautiful stories have settled into the history of a nation and made the orchid a lineage of traditional Chinese culture that has been passed down to this day.
With the changes of the times, more and more women love and grow orchids. At orchid exhibitions and orchid markets, these female orchid enthusiasts leave behind their elegant figures. Setting aside orchid culture and setting aside petal-type theory, growing only the flowers one loves, just for that wisp of orchid fragrance, is this not applying the saying "Qi ruo lan xi chang bu gai, xin ruo lan xi zhong bu yi" to the utmost? "Hui zhi lan xin" is used to describe a woman's intelligence, and praising the orchid as clear but not cold, elegant but not seductive, such words are more than excellent for describing a woman's temperament. Women are like flowers, women are like orchids.
I do not wear perfume, yet I am extremely sensitive to fragrance. Whether in early spring or midsummer, or in late autumn or deep winter, I can always catch on the street or in an elevator a perfume scent very much like orchid fragrance. Whenever I smell it, wisp after wisp of orchid fragrance from my own balcony surges into my mind, involuntarily creating an illusion in me and giving me boundless imagination in my heart. Yes, its essence without turbidity, its profundity and lasting reach, how could they ever be copied by artificially synthesized fragrance essences? The finest fragrance under heaven should be orchid fragrance.
No matter how the world changes, no matter how orchid culture is interpreted, the orchid's soul of pure and bone-penetrating fragrance and its elegant, graceful bearing are, in my heart, unchanging through all time!
