FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE
Sergio Leone, 1965
This is one of the movies with which Sergio Leone invented the “spaghetti western” genre.
Set in New Mexico, the movie tells the story of two cowboys (Manco, the Man with No Name, Clint Eastwood and Colonel Mortimer, Lee Van Cleef) who are hunting the bandit El Indio (Gian Maria Volonté). Both want him dead, but for different reasons: the first for the bounty, the second to avenge his brother’s death. In the final duel, El Indio is killed by the Colonel who, satisfied with his vendetta, leaves the bounty to Manco.
The fragrances inspired by FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE
“I wanted to open this fragrance with a gunpowder accord, to refer to the scent of eccentricity and adrenalin that’s typical of westerns, then make it more sparkling with citrus fruits. I interpreted the scene when the star arrives in San Miguel on horseback using leather accord to hint at the smell of a dusty saddle, softening it all with a note of tonka. The smoked note of styrax came to my aid to conjure up the star’s final duel.”

“When the music stops, you take your pistol and try to shoot… you try. The music starts and the fragrance is born. Inspired by that moment of suspense before the last duel, a moment that’s rich in silences interrupted by only a few significant words: you know the game. A perfume that needs little to be described: intense and profound, like those instants that feel endless.”
