Ok, I just emailed them about it because I do not want to miss the delivery since this package needs to be signed for. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
Thanks for sharing this info! I too was drawn in by the tumbler, which was the reason that I stayed w/ the seasonal versus annual. Maybe annual folks got packages earlier - priority shipping. That is a great benefit. Sounds lovely. would LOVE to see pics, if possible, of anyone's box. Mine isn't due until Oct 5th.I received an email with the tracking number, and I did have to sign for it. I posted pics on instagram, #luxeprovence
What I got and some thoughts about it...
Tumbler
I got a reddish one. It looks like a deep red on the website, but it's kind of rosey in person. I really love the colour and pattern, but should point out that I chose cool colours in the colour options. Although I was initially drawn to the green in the spoiler pics, I was just thinking last night that I liked this exact one best, so it's as if they read my mind.
Candles
There are two small candles instead of one big one, so I assume everyone gets both the melon and fig candles. I could smell them before I opened the box and can't wait to burn them.
Cutting board
It's small but lovely. I wanted to use it more for display, so I'm glad it's the type that doesn't have a handle. The wood grain is very pretty.
Tea towel
I got one depicting a smug waiter! I love it. There's one of a fisher and honestly I was really hoping NOT to get that one! Anything but that! So when I saw this guy and his little smirk, I was very relieved.
Brocante gift
I received a beautiful enamel box that looks just like the sort of thing I'd pick out myself. I don't think I saw anything like it in their preview pics, so it was a complete surprise.
Truffle salt
It smells truffly and I look forward to trying it on eggs.
Soap
This was the only thing I was a little disappointed about, because it's more 'hotel soap' size. I thought that since they mentioned it specifically, that it would be bigger.
Also
There was a card about Rose et Marius, and a little note from Luxe Provence. The packaging is a big white box with their metallic logo embossed, very nice. It doesn't feel as sturdy as some of the other luxury boxes, but makes a nice presentation. I didn't receive any other samples, and there were not discount codes or anything like that.
A few more thoughts...
This is one of the nicest boxes I've ever gotten, and I won't be swapping or gifting a single thing. It's rare that this happens! This is also the most 'me' box that I've ever gotten. Every item is something I'd have purchased myself if I saw it in a shop, and I love the variations I received.
At the same time, it was an expensive box. I am not convinced they hit their promise of $100 over the $195 individual box price. Most of the allure this time was the tumbler, which seems hard to top for future boxes. So I'm very pleased with this box because I love the items so much, but I have more of a 'wait and see' attitude about the next.
nothing. but i am not annual. they said we would get our shipping info on the 1st and packages to arrive 5thHas anyone else received their parcel or at least a shipment tracking notice? Still waiting here...
Not yet - I have an annual subscription. With DHL I have found that it is really based on your location. So hopefully soon. With my luck mine will be delivered on Saturday since my delivery is my work address - that would be the happiest Monday ever /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />DianeER, on 29 Sept 2015 - 09:37 AM, said:Has anyone else received their parcel or at least a shipment tracking notice?

My thoughts as well. I wonder how people with annual subscriptions will feel since the first box was so heavily weighted on home items. I'm sure it will be a lovely box.Based on pictures, I think they are hinting at a scarf for the next parcel.
