Solution

The property of gases due to which the fragrance of perfume spreads very fast is Diffusion.
Diffusion: It is the property of the matter, which is based on the motion of its particles. It is the net movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
The particles of gases have high kinetic energy. The forces of attraction between the gas particles are very weak or negligible.
Therefore, gas particles can diffuse very easily in all directions.
