A shimmering floral aldehyde with a 1970s New York pulse, Imitation Woman rises in a bouquet of rose, ylang ylang, orange blossom and jasmine that feels luminous yet plush, then pivots to a cool rush of aldehydes laced with blackcurrant bud and a teasing ribbon of liquorice, finally sliding into incense, sandalwood and patchouli for a sultry, smoke kissed finish that reads glamorous, cosmopolitan and memorable on skin.

Story and Positioning
Conceived as an olfactive portrait of 1970s New York multicultural energy, this fragrance dresses a classic aldehydic floral idea in neon city light, fruit nuance, and a resinous undertow. It sits in Amouage’s Main Collection as a statement piece for evenings, gallery openings, and after-dark dress codes, speaking to lovers of sophisticated florals with a modern edge.
Bottle and Design
The flacon is the house’s feminine square profile rendered in color-shifting glass that moves from teal and fuchsia at the edges to warm amber at the core. A sculpted, gilded dome cap with a small jewel at the crown sits precisely above a polished collar. The face carries a raised sun seal and crisp lettering, while the atomizer releases a fine, even mist for controlled wear. The box arrives as a collectible art object, printed with bold abstract strokes of yellow, magenta, blue, and black around a centered plaque.
