Perfume: The Story of a Murderer Page #2
Italian perfumer, Giuseppe Baldini,
had set up shop in the center of
the bridge called Pont au Change
on his arrival in Paris
To be sure, at one time in
his youth, Baldini had created
to which he owed his fortune.
But now Baldini was
out of touch, out of fashion,
and spent his days waiting for
customers that no longer came.
- Chnier! There you are!
- Monsieur Baldini.
Put on your wig.
Put on your wig!
You going out?
I wish to retire to my study
for a few hours
and do not want to be disturbed
under any circumstances.
Will you be creating a new
perfume, Monsieur Baldini?
Correct. For Count Verhamont.
He has asked for something like...
I think he said it was called
Amor and Psyche from that swindler
in the Rue Saint Andr des Arts.
Pelissier?
Pelissier, that's him.
Amor and Psyche!
Do you know it?
everywhere these days, monsieur.
In fact, I just
purchased you a sample.
In case you wanted to test it.
What on earth makes you think I'd
be interested in testing it?
You're right.
It's nothing special.
Actually
it's a very common scent.
I believe the head chord
contains lime oil.
Really? And the heart chord?
And civet in the base chord,
but, you know,
I cannot say for sure.
Well, I couldn't care less
what that bungler Pelissier
- slops into his perfumes.
- Naturally not, monsieur.
And I am thinking of creating
something for Count Verhamont
that will cause
a veritable sensation.
I'm sure it will,
Monsieur Baldini.
Take charge of the shop, Chnier,
and don't let anyone come near me.
Inspiration requires
peace and tranquility.
Is there anything else you need?
Inspiration, perhaps.
Ah, my Giuseppe.
You are still
Wonderful.
He did it again.
Lime oil.
Orange blossom,
to be sure.
And a hint of cloves, perhaps.
No.
It's gone.
Cinnamon.
It's not cinnamon.
Cloves.
No.
Musk?
No.
Who's there?
I'm from Grimal's tannery.
I've got the goatskins
you ordered.
Follow me.
This way.
There.
Lay them there.
Tell your master
that the skins are fine.
I'll come by in the next
few days and pay for them.
Yes, Monsieur.
You want to make this leather
smell good, don't you?
Why, of course and so it shall.
With Amor & Psyche
by Pelissier?
Whatever gave you the absurd idea
I would use someone else's perfume?
It's all over you.
It's on your forehead,
your nose, your hands...
It's bad, Amor & Psyche
is, Master.
There's too much rosemary in it.
And too much of...
that and that.
Bergamot and Patchouli?
Pat?
Patchouli.
Patchouli.
What else?
That and that.
