How it's used
Refers specifically to the external impression or persona projected to others, rather than just a physical appearance. It is frequently used in professional, marketing, or social contexts to describe how a person or entity is perceived by the public. When discussing personal style or how someone carries themselves, it often implies a conscious effort to maintain a certain standard.

Common mistake
Avoid using it to describe a literal picture or photograph, which would be 相 or 相片. It is an abstract concept of perception, not a physical object.
