The man is described as white, in his mid-40s, of medium build and around 5ft 7in tall. He had short black slightly receding hair, and was wearing a dark plain polo shirt and jeans with dark, thick round glasses.
Constable Neill Watt said: “This appears to have been an entirely unprovoked incident and while the young woman involved was not injured, she has been left understandably shaken.
“We are appealing to anyone who may have seen what happened to contact us on 0131-311 3131.”
