Trent of Angel I using perfume
A perfume or cologne is a fragrant liquid used to give people or things a pleasant smell.
Males from Angel I used perfume in spray flacons quite frequently. When Data saw the perfume, he called it "an alcohol-based synthetic, artificially reproducing a floral scent." When asking about the purpose of a perfume, Counselor Troi added that some cultures consider perfume an aphrodisiac. (TNG: "Angel One")
Kevin Uxbridge's recreation of his wife Rishon was so convincing that Captain Jean-Luc Picard could even smell her perfume. (TNG: "The Survivors")
In 2369, Julian Bashir asked Jadzia Dax about the name of the exotic scent she was wearing. (DS9: "A Man Alone")
Jadzia Dax gave Lenara Kahn a bottle of Risian perfume as a get well present after an accident on the USS Defiant when attempting to send a probe through an artificial wormhole. (DS9: "Rejoined")
Keiko O'Brien once gave Miles a silk handkerchief with her perfume scented on it. (DS9: "Rivals")
The Flaxian assassin Retaya traded with perfumes and had several samples in his case, including perfumes that smelled floral, musky and spicy. By mixing some of the fragrances, he was able to produce a strong poison that would cause a heart attack in those who inhaled the scent. (DS9: "Improbable Cause")
