I can’t recognize the scent of osmanthus.Mita-mura Chiharu

Suddenly, can you describe the scent of osmanthus in words? Many people can kind of imagine it, but can’t quite explain it, right? This song, whose title taps into that vague sense of shared feeling, is by singer-songwriter Chiharu Mitamura.

As you read the lyrics, which trace the relationship and feelings between the narrator and “you,” you feel a sweet-and-sour poignancy that tightens something deep in your chest.

I also think the acoustic sound and her warm voice perfectly suit the relaxed atmosphere of autumn.
