Yes, 100 ml (or 3.4 ounces) of perfume is generally allowed on an airplane in your carry-on luggage. The key is to ensure it's within a single, transparent, resealable plastic bag, alongside your other liquids. Each item within this bag must not exceed 100 ml, and the total volume should be limited to 1 liter (or approximately 1 quart). Always verify the specific airline's regulations, as they can vary.
