From Merriam-Webster's dictionary: rich=possessing a strong and pleasant taste.
I don't know about Chinese, but in Japanese the character would be ”Z.

One of the definitions from www.answers.com:
Containing a large amount of choice ingredients, such as butter, sugar, or eggs, and therefore unusually heavy or sweet: a rich dessert.

I thought there was too much information to fit into the answer box, but I guess I could have put the first few words and then continued below. Sorry!

: I also like your definition, because this "rich" is more than just taste - texture, creaminess, etc. are also included. But I also agree with Nancy, that you should have inserted something different in the answer box! Slip of the finger, perhaps?
