Nothing, they even ran out of the AP Panettone, which I have to say is one of the best I have ever eaten.

Good to know that you enjoyed it, mine is waiting to be eaten over Christmas. Very tempting!

I just received the same yesterday. It’s actually a nice change from candles and oil diffusers

Nothing wrong with candles, in fact I love them! I was just pleasantly surprised to receive something different this year.

The Bernardaud votive looks nice. Is the design AP themed?

Had that last year, great one. I even looked for it to buy more for the family, they are expensive but not crazy, well worth it.

I'm a one-watch AP customer and I received a watch cleaning kit from them. At first glance I thought it is cosmetics and I passed to my wife, then my wife told me those are not for her face

That is cool!
Frankly, they should send this to every customer after a purchase...

Regarding the Bag I received, I had it inspected by two friends who work for Hermes, both managers in their factories for leather.

They were utterly unimpressed and even laughed at the bag, saying it was a terrible leather, poor craftsmanship, etc. They could point to flaws I didn't notice, but once you know, they are evident.

That made me think that in the end, AP swag is just that: free gift. We shouldn't think too much about them or its quality. Just enjoy the free goodies.

I got a bottle of champagne. I don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth, but I feel a little let down compared to some of the other gifts in here!

Nothing for me this year but the last watch I bought was 12/22 (15416) so perhaps not buying in 2023 cut me off. Doesn’t matter but it is a reminder AP can be bad about keeping people interested in the brand. No communications whatsoever - nada on new releases, nada on events, etc.
