Which advent calendar should you choose this year? 

Every year, the most creative brands outdo each other to create Advent calendars, each one more prestigious than the last, in order to wait until Christmas in style. Whether they are minimalist, eco-friendly, and reusable, or designed as decorative pieces in their own right... These Advent calendars all have one thing in common: they are real works of art. Here is the list of the 10 most luxurious models.

The 10 most incredible Advent calendars of the year 2022 

1. Diptyque

Among the most anticipated calendars each year, the one from Diptyque doesn’t disappoint. Stars, the signs of the zodiac are the theme of this newest, particularly dreamy edition. And for the first time among its surprises, the three festive scents of the house are brought together in miniature format: Fir, Snow, and Sparks. Perfect for the collector.

2. Guerlain

Twenty-five doors make up this fairy-tale hive, each containing a marvel of the house: perfume, skincare, but also makeup, and other unpublished creations... This Hive-Calendar, sublimated by Aleksandra Miletić, is undoubtedly one of the best design models of the year: "I love the immediacy of the immensely large, and the richness of the infinitely small," confides the artist and illustrator.

3. Dior

For this new edition of the Dior Advent calendar, Pietro Ruffo imagines a whole universe based on astrology, stardust, constellations, and fantastic animals. On the program: mini bottles of the brand's iconic perfumes, full-size Rouge Dior, and scented candles... 

4. Armani

With its couture red cover and Japanese-inspired textile paper, this Armani advent calendar is the perfect item for all makeup fans. Lip Power, Eyes Complexion, and mascara: it contains not only all the brand's best-selling makeup products but also its latest fragrance launches. 

5. Susanne Kaufmann

Visually, first of all, this calendar is a wonder, with its minimalist yet charming design. And when you know that it was designed in recycled and recyclable cardboard and that it contains the best formulas of the brand with more than 35% savings on the total value of the products, it definitely ticks all the boxes of what we expect from an advent calendar.

6. Typology

In line with the transparency usual to the house, the Typology advent calendar brings together 24 products, 16 of which are in sale format (a figure rarely reached in the advent calendar world). Among them, the one that made the success of the house: the tinted lip and cheek balm, in 3 shades, but also the serums, tonics, and creams with ethical and sharp formulations of the brand. A nugget.

7. Dr. Barbara Sturm

Chic. Sober. Minimalist. Like the entire Barbara Sturm concept, this advent calendar is all about the essentials and contains the brand's undisputed bestsellers. An opportunity to discover its most advanced formulas, its cult serums, and its textures, each more pleasant than the last...

8. Oh, My Cream

Oh, My Cream is one of the most desirable ultra-popular brands of the moment, and its advent calendar should only amplify this craze. Twenty-five creations from the concept store are brought together, making it one of the most cutting-edge face-care calendars. The ideal object is to get acquainted with the innovative brands of clean cosmetics.

9. Paul & Joe

More than an advent calendar, a real treasure box to keep for a lifetime, decorated with Gipsy and Nounette, the designer's two cats. Inside: beauty kits, hair accessories, limited edition makeup, and many other creations, all nestled in the retro charm of boxes, full of the mischievous and slightly naive spirit of the brand. 

10. Jo Malone

A compendium of the house's olfactory wonders from every angle: in their scented formulas, care products, or home candles. Special mention to the iconic Myrrh & Tonka mini snow globe.
