Return Policy
Last Updated: April 19, 2023
At Black Moon Aromatics, we strive to provide our customers with the easiest possible shopping experience with free returns and exchanges for orders originating from the continental U.S. (the lower 48 states of the United States plus the District of Columbia).
For customers from outside the continental U.S. (Alaska, Hawaii, U.S. Territories, APO/FPO/DPO addresses, or Canada), we will accept returns (a $7 USD fee will be subtracted from total refund amount) but not exchanges.
If you're not completely satisfied with your purchase, we'll try to make things right. Click on the link to jump to a specific section, or keep scrolling to read it all.
