This article is an excerpt from our Sefer
May the husband wear perfume or cologne:
Men are not to wear perfume or cologne when they are going outside of their home.[1] However, inside their home, for the sake of one’s wife, it is permitted to put on men’s cologne.[2] However, women’s perfume should not be worn due to a possible prohibition of Beged Isha.[3]
