On a scale of 1-10, how glossy is the Ilford Warm Tone Semi-Matte?

I really like the look of the Adorama Matte, which has a very light luster surface and I'm hoping it's at least that glossy or maybe a bit more.

Thanks, ya'll.

They call it semi-matte for a reason--it has a bit of a sheen. If hand-coated watercolor paper is a 1 (e.g., salt print), and the addition of some gelatin ups that that to a 2, and Ilford MGIV matte is a 3--then the semi-matte is a 4.
