Will applying perfume on my body or around my armpits worsen the melasma on my face?

Hello! I have melasma on my face and I have heard from multiple sources that fragrances are bad for melasma and hyperpigmentation. My question is, can I apply perfume on my body, will it worsen the melasma on my face can i apply it around armpits, will it affect the melasma on my face in any way?
