About the Fragrance
One moment, one sensory experience,
can completely alter a child's perception of the world. For Amouage
Creative Director Christopher Chong, that moment happened the first time
he experienced New York City as a child in the 1970's- the vibrant
street culture, the breathtaking diversity, and the very sights, sounds
and smells of the greatest city in the world during a tumultuous and
consequential era threw open a door to life's infinite possibilities.
Imitation is his attempt to capture that vibrancy.
Imitation Man represents '70s NYC in bold, sensual, refined
leather tones, opening with electric citrus and tingling spices that
evoke blinding sunshine on bustling asphalt streets. The leather at the
center of the fragrance is rich, soft suede, refined with lush rose,
buttery orris and bright violet. An atmospheric base of spicy, smoky,
animalic notes gives the thrilling authenticity of a smoke filled
discotheque. Imitation Man will take you away to a time and place of
chaos and beauty- and the endless adventures that follow.
