The LGBTQ+ tag marks the calendars made without a gendered range, 6 across the seasons, 0 new for 2026: the couples' boxes from Satisfyer and EIS, Harrods' 12 Days of Fragrance with scents for anyone, and Victoria's Secret's 12 Panties, all 2024 editions kept for the record. The tag is ours and the shelf is thin; for this season the couples' page and the non-binary adults page carry the same idea with the boxes that are on sale, and the fragrance page has the niche houses whose calendars are not made for one sex.

- Step 01
Match the doors to the days
4 of the 6 here have 24 doors — a 24-door box opens one a day from 1 December to Christmas Eve. The other 2 have 12, and the shorter ones start partway through the month: a 12-door box opens on 13 December. For someone who will not open one every day, or a gift that will arrive late, fewer doors is the better fit, not the lesser calendar. Every start date
- Step 02
Start from the ones we have opened
2 of the 6 here carry an editors' pick — the chip above the grid narrows the shelf to those — and 1 has a written score. Those are the boxes somebody on this site has actually judged. The rest are listed because they exist, not because we are recommending them; being on this page is not a verdict. How we review
The lgbtq+ shelf, by the numbers
How each one is countedEvery figure is computed from the records at build time and says how many it is drawn from. Door price is the price on the box over its doors; the value multiple is what the contents come to at retail over that price; full size is the retailer’s own marking. Dollar figures use rough rates and are for ranking only. Where a record cannot support a figure, it is left out rather than guessed.The definitions, one by one →6 lgbtq+ calendars for 2024.
