Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org
Answer

1. Allah’s Messenger (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, “The perfume for
men is the fragrance is apparent but the colour is hidden, and the perfume
for women is the colour is apparent but the fragrance is hidden.” (Mishkaat
Hadith4443)
2. Allah’s Messenger (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said: Every eye is
lustful and when a woman applies perfume and then goes about in an assembly,
she is like such and such, i.e. an adulteress. (Mishkat Hadith1065)
3. The Prophet (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said: If a woman applies
perfume, she must not attend the night prayer with us. Ibn Nufayl said:
Isha’ means night prayer. (Abu Dawud Hadith4163)
4. Narrator: Abu Hurayra – A woman met him and he found the fragrance of
perfume in her. Her clothes were fluttering in the air. He said: O
maid-servant of the Almighty, are you coming from the mosque? She replied:
Yes. He said: You used perfume? She replied: Yes. He said: I heard my
beloved AbulQasim (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) say: The prayer of a woman
who uses perfume is not accepted until she returns and takes a bath like
that of sexual defilement. (Abu Dawud4162)
5. The Prophet (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said: If a woman uses perfume
and passes the people so that they may get its fragrance, she is so-and-so,
meaning severe remarks. (Abu Dawud Hadith4161)
6. The Prophet (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said: I do not ride on purple,
or wear a garment dyed with saffron, or wear shirt hemmed with silk.
Pointing to the collar of his shirt al-Hasan (al-Basri) said: The perfume
used by men should have fragrance but no colour, and the perfume used by
women should have a colour but no odour.
Sa’id said: I think he said: They interpreted his tradition about perfume
used by women as applying when she comes out. But when she is with her
husband, she may use any perfume she wishes. (Abu Dawud Hadith4037)
