International Small Packet Service for perfumes and cosmetics

Hi,
I have a problem with sending my items to international customers. From 14th Jan 2013 Royal Mail put restrictions on Perfumes, EDTs and other cosmetics. They all prohibited to ship to international destinations. Does any one know if there is any other service which is similar to that offered by Royal Mail? We send only small packets up to 1kg which fits a bubble envelopes or small boxes.
Thanks in advance for your advise and help offered.
Regards
Anna

they are classed as flammable , dangersous goods and you will probably find most carriers don't like taking them. Those with the licenses to carry dgs won't have an issue but are usually freight comapnies. its a case of common sense gone mad im affraid0

Red Tape of all sorts sometimes favours the biggest players, but not always. Market forces will always win through eventually. When there is a vacuum caused by external forces, you will see the grey and black market forces turning to other means.Warning: any unnecessary disclaimers appearing under my posts do not bear any connection with reality, either intended, accidental or otherwise.
