an impression of (some kind of a) class Explanation: While it's hard to address the matter without context which you did not provide, first thing first ---------- You asked "高級感 refers more to the image of the wearer than it does to the product? " -- My answer is neither. It is an impression potential user has chosen to have upon the product. If I were you I would not take 感 too seriously. It is like "-- 的" that they use everywhere without definitive meanings. Also these 感 word implies "not-necessarily-so" image. Namely if I see sentence like "高級感があります" my reading-between-line interpretation is "This will give user impression as though they are using high class product". HTH |
