Is it permissible for a pilgrim to use disinfectants with a lemon or rose scent?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: There are disinfectants and cleaning agents with a lemon or rose scent, or other scents. Is it permissible for a pilgrim to use them?

Answer:
As for lemon, there is nothing wrong with it, because it is only a disinfectant; it is not one of the types of perfume. As for what contains rose and has a distinct perfume scent, a person in ihram does not use it.
