Any material taken from Najis item is Najis as well. Fragrances derived from intoxicant alcohol is Najis. Applying such fragrances is permissible by itself, despite that fact that it is Najis, but you need to wash it before performing your Wudhu and/ or Prayers (Salah).

Alcohol . Meaning . Paradise . Surat Muhammad

In Surah Muhammad (47:15), does "خَمۡرٍ" refer to the same intoxicating alcohol that is prohibited in this life? If it does, how can something harmful and forbidden be allowed in Jannah? If not, what is its specific meaning in this context?

The word Khamr خمر in Quran does not mean the intoxicant alcohol which is known and prohibited in this life. Khamr of this life is filth and Najis which causes dangerous effects, while Khamr of Paradise completely different as it will be لَذّةٍ للشاربين delicious for the drinkers. It us a completely different drink which does not have any thing similar to the intoxicating alcohol.

Skin care material does not need to be Taahir as far as you wash the Najis item before Salah. That also after being sure that the skin care is Najis. Not every alcohol is Najis according to many of our leading scholars.

Doubtful material (whether Najis or not) can be taken as Taahir till you have evidence that it is Najis.
