Emirates is known for its bling and swag. As part of that, the airline has today revealed its new amenity kit collection, which will be available for the fall and winter (and is already available on some flights now… which seems kind of early!). As has long been the case, these kits are created in partnership with Bulgari.
In total, there are eight different collectible bags across first and business class. Not only have the kits changed, but the contents have as well, and there’s a special treat for those in first class. Let’s take a look at all the details.
In this post:
New Emirates first class amenity kits
Emirates is rolling out four new collectible amenity kit bags in first class, with two in black vegan leather with lilac accents, and two in a black fabric, some with tan vegan leather accents.
In the black and lilac kits (primarily targeted at women), you’ll find a new engraved gold Bulgari mirror, which is a keepsake exclusively crafted for Emirates, alongside a 30ml bottle of Bulgari Le Gemme Desiria Eau de Parfum. The fragrance is complemented by a matching face and body emulsion, along with a dental kit, cleansing towel, deodorant, tissues, and a hairbrush. 
In the black and tan kits (primarily targeted at men), you’ll find a 30ml bottle of Bulgari Le Gemme Gyan Eau de Parfum. The kit also features a Bulgari Le Gemme Gyan after shave balm with matching body emulsion, plus a cleansing towel, Gillette razor, shaving foam, dental kit, deodorant, tissues, and a hairbrush.
What’s perhaps most noteworthy about these new kits is the fragrances they contain. In each case, a 100ml bottle of the Bulgari Le Gemme fragrances typically retails for close to $400 per bottle. To get a 30ml bottle in your amenity kit is pretty cool, and it’s definitely something you’ll want to take home with you (either for yourself, or as a gift for someone else).
On the Airbus A380, these amenities of course complement the Emirates tote that first class passengers receive, plus the range of toiletries in the shower spa from Voya, plus the skincare set next to the mirror from Byredo.
New Emirates business class amenity kits
Emirates is also rolling out new amenity kits in business class, made from vegan leather. They’ll be silver, and will have two shapes — one will be a pouch, and one will be a classic toiletry bag silhouette. There will be two types of finishes on each.
Each amenity kit features several Bulgari products, including the fragrance Bulgari Omnia Amethyste Eau de Toilette. This will be complemented by an Omnia Amethyste face emulsion and body emulsion, as well as a Bulgari lip balm. There will then be other comfort essentials, including a dental kit, double mirror, deodorant, tissues, and a hairbrush.
Bottom line
Emirates is rolling out some pretty awesome new amenity kits in first and business class. We’re seeing some slight changes to the kits as such, but beyond that, we’re seeing new products.
Perhaps most noteworthy is that in first class, passengers will receive 30ml bottles of some very high end Bulgari Le Gemme fragrances. Definitely don’t discard those if you’re flying with Emirates. At a minimum, they make a great gift.
What do you make of Emirates’ new amenity kits?
What a pity, would've preferred to have byredo toiletries in the amenity pack as well.
Do they provide these amenity packs on all routes? Even the shorter ones?
The second picture is a business class amenity bag, not first class. The caption is wrong.
You get the totes in First on the 777 as well, not only on the 380.
I'd rather fly J on a plane without a 2-3-2 config than have a new amenity kit...
I haven't flown Emirates First (yet - have it booked) and didn't realize you get to keep the shower tote. I figured that was just for use while onboard.
I don't choose an airline based on their amenity kit. I would bet many people take them but most people do not really use them. I wonder how many passengers really use them.
I never touch amenity kits. I have my own eye-mask, & bring my own skincare as I find the products provides in the kits are either ineffectual, unpleasantly scented, or both.
Frankly the thought of a cabin full of pax spraying EDP and using heavily scented potions fills me with dread.
Also, "vegan leather"?
LOL, yes Emirates, we call that "vinyl".
Pass.

The new amenity kits are honestly
not that big of a deal
The lady’s pouch is incredibly stiff
I don’t believe offering a deodorant is classy and the new perfume is ok
Is there a minimum flight length for them to offer the amenity kits?
My brother in law works in the middle east, a job perk is Emirates first travel. He gifted me the tote bag just the other day.
Do not let that eau de parfum sit around unused. If you’re not going to use it give it to someone who would appreciate it and use it. That stuff is expensive and does go bad. Keep it stored in a dark and cool place and don’t be afraid to use it ; 10 sprays per use. It will go bad after 2 yrs.
Incredible what you can offer when money and profit are not important
My wife and I actually got these new kits in First from Seychelles to Dubai back in April - and yes, like everything else on Emirates, they are great. We only have one complaint about Emirates - they don't fly out of PHX so we are stuck with BA (Bloody Awful) or AA (Always Awful).
Vegan leather, the new term for a nice quality plastic pouch? Even PETA writes that most vegan leather is polyurethane, so plastic. No animals was hurt, but the plastic industry is jubilant. I guess faux leather does not sound as nice as vegan leather. Lol.
Jokes aside, they do look nice.
Looks great but I agree that their fragrances are definitely overpowering and quite heavy but each to their own - a nice gift for someone back home
So, no shaving equipment in the Business Class kit?
You get these in the lavatories.
Yep thats true, but thats the terrible Gilette disposables.
Like one of the comments earlier said, the razors in the kit were/are the Truefitt and Hill which are much,much better.
first world problems :)
I have stayed at a lot of hotels with the Bulgari scents and never really took to them. (At some, they are used in the premium rooms, and so I always ask if I can have the normal non-Bulgari ones.) Maybe these more expensive scents are better, but it wouldn't be my first choice...
The emirates razors are amazing. They are not Gillette but rather from Truefitt & Hill. You can order the same disposable ones from their website.
Still rocking my first EK leather amenity kit pouch from 2015 as my week to week toiletry case—incredibly durable. I absolutely love their disposable razors, too, really great shave. Do the Bulgari lotions and such “go bad”? I’ve always wondered, as I do have a surplus of them and giving them as small gifts is a nice idea.
I don’t really see any difference with the current bag in first. Also black colour and includes a 30ml perfume by Bulgari.
The first class kits look very lovely.
The business class kits look like someone bet Emirates they couldn't design something using entirely sparkly silver pleather that doesn't look trashy. Emirates lost the bet.
Loved the beige ones. Will be interesting to see how these compare. Their worst ones were the drawstring style.
The previous versions also contained 30ml of Le Gemme Tygar
