FAQs
What are Poppers and are they Legal?
Poppers are completely legal in the UK, so don’t worry! They are a Nitrite based liquid, being either Pentyl or Isopropyl Nitrite. The original form that was available in the 1970’s and 80’s was Amyl, and is now only available as a prescribed drug in hospitals!
The UK Government and Home Office generally use the word poppers when they are referring to a type of alkyl nitrite and specifically isopropyl nitrite products. In March 2016, the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs stated that, because alkyl nitrites do not directly stimulate or depress the central nervous system, poppers do not fall within the scope of the Psychoactive Substances Act 2016.
There was a Conservative MP, Crispin Blunt, that stood up at the time of the debate and declared that he has used and currently uses poppers to a packed House of Commons! What Fun!
All the poppers sold on our site are designed as “aromas” or “room odourises” and are not designed for direct inhalation. The correct way to use is to open the bottle in a room and let the vapour fill the air.
If a product has been labelled as Leather Cleaners, then it should be used for the treatment of leather items, and their end use is as a leather cleaner.
All the aromas sold on our website are legal in the UK and sold with the appropriate child proof lid and in tamper evident bottles and may not be sold to any person under Eighteen (18) years of age.
As with all chemicals ALWAYS READ THE LABEL AND FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURERS GUIDELINES.
Aromas contain Alkyl Nitrites, which are harmful and flammable, so please read the below if you are going to use them.
Highly Flammable: Do not use near open fire or flame.
Eye Irritant: Should the liquid have contact with the eye flush with water immediately.
Harmful if Swallowed: If swallowed, drink two glasses of milk or water immediately and induce vomiting, then call your GP or contact A&E without delay.
Avoid Contact with the Skin: As mentioned, do not inhale contents directly from bottle, as contact with the skin may cause burns. If there is contact with the skin, wash the area with water immediately.
This product is classified in accordance with 67/548/EEC.
Always keep the bottle upright, with the cap firmly secured. If possible, avoid storing in direct sunlight, and keep them in a cold, dark space.
You can even store them in the fridge, if you have the space, to keep them nice and cold.
