Are there any restrictions on shipping perfume?
Scento ships perfume decants safely and legally across Europe. Our sample sizes (0.75ml to 8ml) comply with all shipping regulations for fragrance products.
How We Ship Perfume Safely
All Scento orders are:
Properly classified as consumer fragrance samples
Safely packaged with leak-proof seals and protective materials
Fully compliant with EU shipping regulations for perfume products
Shipped via ground transport through trusted carriers (DPD, DHL, UPS)
Why Our Sizes Work for Shipping
Commercial carriers have strict rules about shipping alcohol-containing liquids. Our decant sizes are designed to fall within acceptable limits:
Size | Volume | Shipping Status |
0.75ml | Less than 1ml | Fully compliant |
2ml | 2ml | Fully compliant |
8ml | 8ml | Fully compliant |
These small volumes qualify as "limited quantities" under transport regulations, allowing safe ground shipping.
Do You Ship by Air?
All Scento orders ship via ground transport within Europe. We do not use air freight for fragrance products, which:
Avoids stricter air cargo regulations
Ensures reliable delivery without restrictions
Keeps shipping costs low
Ground shipping still provides delivery within 2-5 business days for most EU destinations.
Is My Package Safe in Transit?
Yes. Each order is:
Individually wrapped to prevent leakage
Cushioned with protective packaging
Sealed in discreet, recyclable outer packaging
Labeled correctly for carrier handling
We've shipped hundreds of thousands of fragrance decants without issue.
Countries With Shipping Restrictions
Currently, we can ship perfume products to all EU countries without restriction. We do not ship to:
Countries with import bans on alcohol-based products
Countries outside Europe (due to international air cargo restrictions)
