Mint is not a kind of perfume
Question: 21180
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
Mint is not a kind of perfume, rather it is more like Persian basil, and Persian basil resembles yashmoom. Even though it has a pleasant fragrance it is not a kind of perfume, unlike the well known kind of basil which is a perfume whether it is fresh or dry.
