David,

    Actually a simulate or a synthetic can look like a genuine. 

    The difference is that a synthetic has all the same physical,
    chemical and optical properties as the genuine that it is trying to
    look like. 

    A simulate can only look like the gemstone it is trying to look
    like. 

    There is also the synthetic that is a simulate. Such as a synthetic
    Spinel trying to look like a Sapphire or Ruby.
