Perfuming the Prophet (ﷺ) in Ihram

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the best perfume used by Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) when entering into a state of Ihram.

'Uthman b. 'Urwa reported on the authority of his father that he said: I asked 'A'isha with what thing she perfumed the Messenger of Allah at the time of entering upon the state of Ihram. She said: With the best of perfume.
وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، جَمِيعًا عَنِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ، - قَالَ زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ - رضى الله عنها - بِأَىِّ شَىْءٍ طَيَّبْتِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عِنْدَ حِرْمِهِ قَالَتْ بِأَطْيَبِ الطِّيبِ‏.‏
