Here. Never seen this before.

Celebrating my SILs bday in NYC I surprised her with a visit to the Cartier Mansion to pick out an everyday ring - she chose a RG love. Post purchase, I tried on a few watches and bought the 36 mm Ballon Bleu. I jokingly asked for a asked for a candle or champagne and my SA came out with this leather roll and I absolutely love it! He kept going on and on about how only gold watches receive it and how lucky I was lol Most useful gift ever.

My Scottsdale SA did give me a few velvet pouches with my gold love & JUC, but the structure of the leather is great.

Does anyone know whether Harrods is able to give gifts as well? I bought my first rose gold love ring for my birthday at the Harrods boutique and the lady was so lovely and gave me her card with her details. She asked whether it was a special occasion and I let her know it was my birthday. I did not receive any gifts for my purchase nor was I expecting any as this was my first purchase. I would absolutely love to have a Cartier candle but obviously these aren't available to purchase and I would feel quite awkward asking the sales associate for a candle. I do plan on purchasing a juste un clou ring with diamonds at some stage as well as a pair of earrings and was wondering whether it would be best to purchase in Harrods again with the same sales associate or in a stand alone Cartier store (either in Bond street or Sloane street)...

I find you get the best experience in Selfridges Cartier. Bond Street has always made myself and my partner feel uncomfortable.
 
Sydney, Australia store this week.

Purchased a standard Love bracelet in WG, first Love bracelet purchased late last year. Both purchases with my regular and so lovely SA. Received a travel pouch with both bracelets. Cleaning kit last year, none this year as they were out but have been but was told that one would be mailed out to me when stocks return. Glasses of champagne in store, a leopard print macaron this time around.

The gift situation very different in Australia, I think, unless you are a VVIP, high spend client.

There will be a second CBD store opening this October and there will be an event marking the occasion to which clients will be invited. I'll update if I make the cut.
 
Maybe it depends on the store.
We bought a Love and Juc a month ago and I got travel pillows for each plus an extra for my previously purchased Love.
They had no polishing cloths, no stock. We drank lots of champs there and he put 2 bottles (a small and a large) in the bag and a handful of chocolates and perfume samples.

I just purchased two bracelets in store from Cartier last week and asked for a travel pouch with a pillow and she said that Cartier isn't giving out cleaning kits or travel pouches any longer. Is this accurate? I spent about $24K and only got perfume samples :annoyed:
My SA told me last week there's a company wide shortage on cleaning kits.
