Question:
O women, you go on visits with drivers and do not apply perfume until you arrive at the house you intend to visit, and you return to your homes with the drivers as well. Do you bear any sin for this?
Answer:
You bear sin. A woman does not apply perfume outside her home. She applies it when she is with those she visits, and she returns with the driver wearing perfume, as do the women with her. No, she does not apply perfume except in her home and in the presence of her husband only. If she wants to go out, she goes out in clothes that do not contain perfume, for a visit or otherwise. Yes.
