Christ was in Bethany at the home of Simon the leper a week prior to the crucifixion, when during a conversation, Mary took a very costly perfume of pure nard, broke it, anointed Christ’s head and feet, and then wiped the excess off with her hair.
What Mary did obviously was controversial. The disciples, led by Judas, practically revolted because it was not only very expensive perfume but the feet were also synonymous with sin! The fact that Mary seemingly wasted such a valuable possession on something so dirty was considered a crime!
