Alcohol in Cosmetics/Perfumes

Q: I would like to know if one is permitted to apply colognes and eau de toilette perfumes containing Alcohol?

Answer: The alcohols used in creams/cosmetics etc. are denatured and furthermore are NOT from the ‘khamr-asli’ category which is najis (napaak and impure) thus the use of such perfumes, colognes etc is permissible.
