Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a woman goes out in a car and returns in a car, is it permissible for her to apply perfume or not?
Answer:
No, the point is that she does not go out wearing perfume, whether she is walking or riding in a car; she does not apply perfume when going out, not even to the mosque; she does not apply perfume. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Abi Dawud 566 and let them go out without adornment, meaning they are not to have perfume or adornment. This is if it is to the mosques, which are places of worship; how about going out to parties and mixing with people? That is not permissible, and as for the markets, yes.

Do not prevent the female servant your women from visiting the mosques of Allah.
لا تمنعوا اماء الله مساجد الله وبيوتهن خير لهن
