Scent

[jain2016]

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.

While selecting a perfume , experts suggest that you select a scent that complements your personality and that it works with your skin.



I think IT is redundant here.


While selecting a perfume , experts suggest that you select a scent that complements your personality and that works with your skin.


While selecting a perfume , experts suggest

1) that you select a scent that complements your personality

and

2) that works with your skin.



Can you please post the complete question?

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.
