ive heard that it is not allowed in islam to wear perfume and moisturisers and stuff which contain alcohol. ive gained knowledge that u need to wash the area which it has come into contact with.
i know that perfume isnt correct in large amounts coz it is attractive n stuff...im more worried about moisturisers, i cant find any without alcohol.ive stopped using it but all my frends use it and say "its ok...evryone does it...if it was haram, we wud know..." n stuff like that.
what do i do? is it ok to use things with alcohol in it?

I will not go to out of of my way to ovoid products that have ethanol in it. IT is going to far when only one is not required to drink alcohol (intoxication). You can touch it but don't drink it. You can have perfume with bit of alcohol and it is perfectly fine, or product that has minute amount of alcohol because it is simply it exist as a byproduct or it is required in certain product.
skillganon is corrrect some form of alcohol is going to be found in every organic product. In fact if we really get too carried away some ethanol can be found in every vegetable product.
There is a big difference between what naturaly occurs in food products and what is exploited to be used as an intoxicant.
I've personally stopped using perfume because all the ones I have contain alcohol... the bottles say alcohol on it, they don't say some kind of alcohol compound or anything...

All perfumes do contain alcohol, I could be wrong but I believe only the French perfumes contain ethanol. Back before I reverted I would occasionaly bring perfumes back to the states for Christmas gifts etc. With the Perfumes I bought in France, I was required to pay the liquar tax on them.
Before you give up on perfumes you may want to see what alcohol is used. if it is not Ethanol, ethyl or grain Spirits; it is not the drinking intoxicating alcohol. If it just says alcohol and not a specific type it will be best to assume it is the haram ethenol

but the perfume isn't considered an intoxicant innit?
lol so.. allahu alam but it's not intoxicant.. if you consume alot of it (as in, something that people will regard as alot... e.g. 15 sprays.. ) and it doesn't intoxicate.. its halal.
with beer for example... we know its an intoxicant coz if one drinks enough of it.. they'll go potty. with perfume its not the case... from what ive tried atleast...
The Qur'aan (Allahs truth) outlines that khamr is strictly forbidden. What falls under khamr is anything that befogs the mind, including alcohol. There is a hadith in which Rasullah saaws states in so many words that the person who carries alcohol is not in a good posistion with Allah. For tahaarah purposes i would advice that these products containing alcohol not to be used, no matter much Muslims try to debate and confuse the issue. Its clear to me and i thank Allah for the many beautiful scents out there that are much cheaper than dogs juice like hugo boss, babys bum face for men etc.
A person with personal hatred in the heart will argue, however the one who questions his sincerity will reason.
just becaus eits not intoxicating when u drink it duz it mean that it is clean and we can put it on our bodies n clothes?
some items are haram to produce, e.g. makign food using intoxicants (e.g. alchohol) because it involes purhcasing/using it etc.. even tho the final product might not be intoxicating.
When it comes to using already made products, it's different, it is considered as khamr only if it intoxicates.. i.e. if you consume alot of it and you get intoxicated, then even in small amounts is haram.

Its simple inshalah
