Any insight into this "law" about it being illegal to mail perfume? (1 Viewer)

IIRC after 9/11 and all the terrorism threats that followed they banned mailing anything containing flammable liquid contents. A few bomb threats were made through the mail and one of the packages found contained a set up with a bottle of household cleaner and a couple of strike anywhere matches and something else but I forgot what the third item was. After that it was banned mailing anything with liquid flammable content.

This makes sense....I may not agree with the policy; but it's logical. Thanks

This has more to do with the distributors than anything else. Distributors can mail such items. Private parties, maybe not.

i can order a bottle of perfume and have it mailed to me with no issues. Same with wine (unless i live in certain states, and the distributors are behind that, too ).
