<<Jewish women
are encouraged to make themselves attractive to their husbands. The
references to women's perfumes and cosmetics in the Mishnah or Gemara
are made in connection with their use for the purpose of making women
attractive to their husbands.>>

I repeat my previous remark. I have great doubts that R. Akiva bought for
his wife the Jerusalem of Gold to wear only at home
