The Ruling on Smelling Incense and Oud Oil in Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Does incense or oud oil break the fast in Ramadan?

Answer:
Incense, yes. If one intentionally smells incense, it breaks the fast; because the smoke enters his brain and his windpipe. As for liquid perfume, this does not harm. And incense that one does not intentionally smell, but rather it comes to him, does not harm. Yes.
