Holmes can barley enjoy Watson's pleasure at seeing his gifts, though he does make a note to be pleased with himself later, much later, once Watson has opened the last one and hopefully joined in with Holmes's joke. He had been certain that Watson would enjoy the tobacco, only slightly less certain of the dressing gown -- but Holmes had been right when he'd assessed it in the shop and determined that it would look good on Watson.

He returns the kiss, passing his arm along Watson's in his new robe, and he draws back to get a proper look at him: freshly kissed and well dressed.

"It looks even better on you than I had estimated. You are showing up my powers tonight, dear boy." He smiles teasingly and leans in for another kiss, but now he's sure he can't wait any longer.

"Go on, open your last present." He gives an amused smile which actually hides how slightly nervous he is. Joke gifts are so stressful.
