My Wife Offends Me by Her Odor

Question :

My wife has taken recently to using a kind of oil which she believes will prevent hair loss, but the smell of this oil is extremely offensive. I have requested her not to use this oil, because I cannot rest with this smell, and because if she must use something to prevent hair loss, then she can choose some other kind of shampoo or oil whose smell is acceptable. But my wife became angry at these words and thought I was trying to hurt her by them. So she stayed away from me at bedtime and started sleeping in another bedroom. I ask you to benefit us (with advice) and may Allah benefit you.

She is obliged to beautify herself for her husband using those things that cause. intimacy and affection between couples, and to remove whatever offends him, such as bad smells, dirty clothes and other things. It is forbidden for her to stay away from the bed of her husband, and to forbid him from access to her whenever he wishes, as long as there is no harm.

A stern warning has been reported for the woman whose husband calls her to his bed and she refuses, and he goes to bed angry with her. Therefore, it is incumbent upon the husband and wife to strive to achieve goodness and the affection that is required of each of them towards the other. And Allah knows best.
