2927 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَى، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: «كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى وَبِيصِ الطِّيبِ فِي مَفَارِقِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَهُوَ يُلَبِّي»

Commentary
The practice of the Prophet ﷺ, proves that wearing perfume before entering in the state of Ihrām is allowed. On the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah, after throwing pebbles at the Jamarah and shaving or cutting the hair short, the restrictions of Ihrām are lifted, except the prohibition of sexual intercourse with one's spouse. Therefore, the Tawāf of Ifādah on this day is performed in usual clothes, and applying perfumes before it is also allowed.
