POLICIES

 

ESSENCES

Herbcraft Perfumery uses natural (absolutes, CO2 extractions, concretes, essential oils, floral waters, resins, tinctures, etc.), man-made (synthesized molecules isolated from plant and petroleum by-product sources, some using sustainable technologies) materials and plant-derived alcohol to create our fragrances. We source our ingredients from the most sustainable suppliers available to us, and buy directly from farms and agricultural community-oriented organizations whenever possible. We believe in science, and that fear does not make ethical marketing. We follow the guidance of the International Fragrance Association (IFRA) in regards to safety in fragrance formulation and ingredient-selection.

Because the purpose of Herbcraft Perfumery is to honor the natural world, Herbcraft Perfumery is committed to not using materials from species listed as vulnerable, near-threatened, endangered, critically-endangered or extinct in the wild by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature’s Red List of Threatened Species™, CITES or other organizations. 

POLICIES

Herbcraft Perfumery is committed to resisting oppression and discrimination in the fragrance industry and the world at-large. This commitment includes choosing who we accept as clients by discerning whether their policies and politics are in alignment with the greater mission and vision of a regenerated, just and beautiful world.

While we believe that fostering spiritual connections to the planet is essential to a just and renewable future, we do our best not to engage in the appropriation and commercialization of BIPOC traditions and practices. Relationships with spirits and geniuses are pursued, nurtured and inherited, but they cannot be stolen. While resonance is what connects all things, Mauricio does not claim association with any standardized traditions or systems. We work to connect you with your own spirits and path.

To co-create bespoke fragrant and magical tools for personal use or your business, please utilize the contact form.


packaging

The tissue paper used to wrap Herbcraft Perfumery products is 100% post-recycled paper, and all shipping materials are 100% compostable or recyclable (including the shipping label and its adhesive backing) or have been repurposed (all plastic packaging with the exception of perfume and sample bottles).

It is our goal to one day feature completely sustainable packaging. At the moment, the pump mechanisms used to atomize our fragrances do contain less than a salad-container’s worth of plastic and the protective cap secures with plastic). Our packaging also contains small amounts of metal.


shipping

All orders are processed within five business days from receipt of the order, unless a hiatus or pause was previously announced. Sample sets are shipped via USPS and full-size fragrances via UPS. Tracking information will be emailed to the address provided upon shipment.


returns

Herbcraft Perfumery does not accept returns at this time. The limited, small-batch nature of our products necessitates careful distribution. We encourage you to try samples prior to purchasing a full-size bottle of any Herbcraft Perfumery fragrance.
