What is the ruling on one who applies perfume while in a state of ihram, forgetting that he is in ihram?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: After I entered the state of ihram from the miqat, I got into the car. A few minutes later, another man got in with me and applied perfume to my ihram garments and my body. I knew that this is among the prohibitions of ihram, but I was forgetting. What is the ruling?

Answer:
It is obligatory for you to wash it off. You must hasten to wash it off and remove it if perfume touches you while you are in ihram, or if it touches your clothing. However, if you left it on you while ignorant or forgetting, you owe nothing. But if you left it on you intentionally, you owe the fidyah (ransom payment).
