Fragrances, gold and incense is a novel rich in meanings. It intertwines life and legend, mythical and real, atheism and hypertrophied religiosity.
It is a book about disappointment in the world and people, about nausea and disgust, about a man who has lost the meaning of life, about lost illusions. The borderline existential situation of the main character is marked by anxiety, precisely Sartre's metaphor of disgust, getting closer to oneself and moving away from oneself, hopeless Godot waiting: Mali is waiting for "the life that could come when a death that does not come" comes. For him, living means "constantly choosing the harsher alternative". This feverish dialogue with one's own conscience, full of disturbing moralism, is the pinnacle of Croatian existentialist prose.
