What is the ruling on using scented soap for a person in ihram?

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Using scented soap for a person in ihram.

The Shaykh:
He should avoid it because it has a scent that clings to the hand. He should avoid it and wash with soap that has no scent, or with ishmam or sidr. They used to wash with water and sidr. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The cleanser that has no pleasant scent is fine.

The presenter:
And likewise, may Allah preserve you, the drinking by a person in ihram of tea and coffee that contains saffron.

The Shaykh:
He should avoid the saffron. He can drink coffee, one pot or two pots, that is not a problem, but he should not put saffron in it; because saffron is a type of perfume.

The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
And no mint. He should not put saffron in it, because mint is a pleasant scent. Yes.
