FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Where are Honorable Mention fragrances made?
All Honorable Mention fragrances are manufactured and fulfilled in Texas. Each scent is thoughtfully created using carefully selected raw materials to ensure quality and performance.
Is Honorable Mention a real fragrance brand?
Yes. Honorable Mention is an independent luxury fragrance house founded by Missy Pye. Every scent is intentionally developed using quality raw materials and produced with care in Texas.
Do you test your fragrances before shipping?
Yes. We test spray our atomizers to ensure they are functioning properly before your fragrance is packed and sealed.
What if my bottle is damaged or my atomizer is not working?
Please send photos and/or videos showing the damage or atomizer issue to honorablementioncollective@gmail.com, or message us through our website. Once reviewed, we will provide a suitable resolution.
What concentration are your perfumes?
Our fragrances are extrait de parfum concentration, meaning they contain a higher level of crafted fragrance oils for richer scent depth and longer-lasting wear.
Are all of your fragrances blended with raw aroma chemicals?
For the most part, yes. Honorable Mention fragrances are primarily blended using raw aroma chemicals and carefully selected perfumery materials.
In cases where future blends may include fragrance oils, we will only use high-quality grade fragrance materials, and this will always be clearly indicated on the product page for transparency.
Are your fragrances clean?
Honorable Mention fragrances are created without dyes, sulfates, phthalates, or unnecessary additives. We focus on intentional formulation that allows each scent to perform naturally and beautifully.
How long will my fragrance last?
Longevity can vary based on skin chemistry, application, and environment. Extrait fragrances are designed to wear for several hours and may leave a soft scent trail even longer.
Will the fragrance smell exactly the same on everyone?
Fragrance interacts with individual skin chemistry, body temperature, and environment. This means the scent may evolve uniquely on each wearer, making the experience more personal.
Why may my fragrance change color over time?
Some fragrance ingredients, such as vanillin, can naturally deepen in color as they mature. This is completely normal and does not affect the quality or performance of the fragrance.
Are there purchase limits?
Currently, purchase limits are in place for select sizes to help make the shopping experience as fair and smooth as possible for everyone. The maximum purchase quantity is 2 for the 100ml size and 3 for the 30ml size. We will continue working to improve the buying experience moving forward.
Why are your fragrances priced the way they are?
Our pricing reflects the concentration level, ingredient quality, packaging experience, and small-batch nature of an independent fragrance house.
Do you offer returns or refunds?
Due to the personal nature of fragrance and hygiene standards, all sales are final. We encourage customers to review fragrance descriptions carefully before purchasing.
Do you offer travel sizes?
Select fragrances may be released in travel sizes for limited periods. Availability may vary depending on the release and demand.
Will Honorable Mention offer body care?
Body care may be coming in the future. Any body care products released must first pass quality control and owner approval to ensure they meet Honorable Mention standards.
Do you include care cards with every order?
Care cards may be included when available. Due to stock and availability, they may not be included with every order.
How should I store my fragrance?
Store your fragrance in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, humidity, and extreme heat to help preserve its quality.
How can I stay updated on new releases?
Follow Honorable Mention on social media and subscribe to our updates to be the first to know about launches, restocks, and exclusive releases.
Why should I trust purchasing from Honorable Mention?
We are committed to transparency, thoughtful formulation, and delivering a premium fragrance experience. From scent creation to packaging and customer care, every detail is handled with intention.
How does tracking work & When to Expect Delays?

If there is no scan after 3–5 days (not including holidays or weekends), you should contact UPS to check. If you have not received any tracking information for your order after 6 business days please reach out as soon as possible through our contact channels.
Fragrance Performance Tips
Where should I apply my fragrance?
Apply fragrance to pulse points such as the neck, wrists, behind the ears, and chest. These warmer areas help diffuse the scent naturally.
How can I make my fragrance last longer?
Apply fragrance to moisturized skin or over an unscented lotion. Avoid rubbing the fragrance after spraying, as this can disrupt how the scent develops.
How many sprays should I use?
Because our fragrances are extrait concentration, start with one to three sprays and adjust based on your personal preference.
Can I spray fragrance on clothing?
Yes, but we recommend testing on a small hidden area first, as some fragrance oils may leave marks on delicate fabrics.
How long should I let my fragrance mature?
Fragrances can continue to develop over time. Allowing your perfume to rest in a stable environment may enhance its smoothness and depth.
