The ruling on using perfumes containing alcohol

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks about the ruling on using Parisian perfumes that contain alcohol.

Answer:
If it is established that they contain alcohol, then it is not permissible to use them, because alcohol is from intoxicants. It is not permissible to use intoxicants for perfumery or to use them in any way. First, because it is obligatory to destroy intoxicants, and it is not permissible to keep them or use them. Second, because a group of scholars say that it is ritually impure, and one does not perfume oneself with something ritually impure. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
