Summary/Abstract: The main goal of the text is to offer a reading of Patrick Susskind’s novel Perfume through the philosophy of George Bataille and to show how the erotic experience is constructed into the text. This could help to give an answer to the question of how the power, body strength and authority are presented as a solid and unbreakable connection into the plot with the eroticism and the problem of the death.
