Hi Experts ,
While selecting a perfume , experts suggest that you select a scent that complements your personality and that it works with your skin.
My doubt : In the above sentence IT refers to scents right? Then why this sentence is wrong?
Please give me a reason Experts.
Thanks in advance.

I think IT is redundant here.

I doubt arised in my mind that DO WE NEED A REFERENT FOR "YOU" in this sentence.

It is a case of parallelism.
The sentence structure is:
While selecting a perfume , experts suggest that you select a scent that A and B.
The sentence has two part which should be parallel
- complements your personality --> not a clause
- it works with your skin. --> this is a clause
So, both parts are not balanced & hence are incorrect.
Please post complete question.
