LELO’s First Advent Calendar Puts Full-Sized Sex Toys Behind Every Door

LELO's Couples Advent Calendar packs 12 full-size toys, candles, and accessories for $399. Our verdict: a damn good deal.

A closed advent calendar box with a ribbon sits on a dark surface, partially open to reveal satin-wrapped toys and candles.

LELO just put out its first advent calendar, and it is exactly as fancy as you would expect from a brand that charges hundreds of dollars for premium sex toys. The Couples Calendar costs $399 and comes with 12 days of full-size toys, candles, and accessories. It is a damn good deal.

What Is In The Calendar

The calendar is not padded with cheap samples or tiny trinkets. Each of the 12 days holds a full-size device or a fun treat, and the list reads like a curated gift box rather than a marketing gimmick. Here is everything you get:

  • TOR 3 pleasure ring ($169 value)
  • LELO SURFER 2 vibrating butt plug ($119 value)
  • MIA 3 personal massager ($109 value)
  • LELO Personal Moisturizer (75ml) ($34.90 value)
  • SONA 2 Travel sonic clitoral massager ($99 value)
  • Flickering Touch Massage Candle (Vanilla & Crème De Cacao) ($34.90 value)
  • LELO Pleasure Enhancing Serum ($29.90 value)
  • LELO Toy Cleaning Spray ($18.90 value)
  • Handcuffs
  • Blindfold

The Numbers Add Up

The total retail value of the toys alone is over $500. That is before you add in the candle, the serum, the cleaning spray, the handcuffs, and the blindfold. For $399, you get a significant discount on premium items.

“The toys alone retail for over $500.”

The comparison to Dior is the joke. A luxury brand charged $3,500 for a box that literally gives you a candle lid on day six. LELO does not need to charge $3,500 for a full calendar of actual toys.

Why This Beats Dior

That is the point. LELO is a sex toy company, and its calendar is a collection of sex toys. Dior is a fashion house, and its calendar is a box that includes a lid. One is useful. The other is a joke.

Who Made The Review

Tabitha Britt wrote the review. She is an award-winning freelance journalist, editor, and SEO/AEO strategist who reviews dating apps and sex toys for Mashable. She is also the founding editor-in-chief of DO YOU ENDO, a digital magazine by and for people with endometriosis.

Britt has a Master’s degree in Creative Publishing and Critical Journalism from The New School for Social Research and is a grad of Sextech School. Her work appears in National Geographic, Glamour, Better Homes & Gardens, and Everyday Health.

What To Buy With It

The calendar is not just for couples. You can open it alone, stretch it across 12 days, or dump it all out on one night. The review notes that you can either turn it into a 12-day countdown with your partner or yourself, or make one very memorable night out of it.

Either way, getting full-sized, $100+ sex toys for $399 is a win. The handcuffs and blindfold add a playful edge that a standard toy purchase would not include.

Related Apps And Sites

The review lists three apps for casual connections:

  • AdultFriendFinder — readers’ pick for casual connections
  • Tinder — top pick for finding hookups
  • Hinge — popular choice for regular meetups

None of them are part of the calendar itself. They are listed as related resources for people who want to connect outside the bedroom.

The Bottom Line

LELO’s Couples Calendar is a good deal. It bundles premium items at a discount, and the calendar format allows you to open one gift a day or enjoy everything at once. The toys are full-size, the value is real, and the comparison to Dior is the best kind of marketing.

If you were looking for a reason to buy a luxury advent calendar, this is it. The calendar is available now for $399, and the toys alone retail for over $500.

Key Facts Box

  • Price: $399
  • Total retail value of toys: Over $500
  • Days in the calendar: 12
  • Items included: Twelve items total (ten with prices)

The deal is simple. You pay $399 for premium items, and you get to unwrap them over 12 days or all at once. That is the definition of a win.
