look at the man page

 --ftp-create-dirs
          (FTP)  When  an  FTP  URL/operation  uses  a  path that
          doesn't currently exist on  the  server,  the  standard
          behaviour  of  curl is to fail. Using this option, curl
          will instead attempt to create missing directories.
 
          If this option is used twice,  the  second  will  again
          disable silent failure.
