Applying oud with alcohol content
Question
Is applying oud halaal or haraam since in many oud's, the producers add alcohol although the alcohol is evaporated at about 15°C to 20°C (as per the producers comments)?
Answer
Generally, the alcohol that perfumes contain are synthetic and chemically produced alcohol. If this is the case then such perfumes can be used.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
