The Gabon international kicked off December by netting twice against arch-rivals Tottenham.
He also provided the assist for Lucas Torreira as Arsenal got one over Mauricio Pochettino's side.
Aubameyang was back to scoring against Burnley and netted against Brighton on New Year's Day.
And after Arsenal announced he had won the award, the striker took to social media to react.
He tweeted: "Thanks apart from that s*** game in Liverpool it was a good month."
Aubameyang was referencing the humiliating 5-1 defeat to the Reds at Anfield.
The 29-year-old has been in superb form this season, netting 14 times in the Premier League.
That has left the former Borussia Dortmund ace level at the top of the scoring charts with Tottenham forward Harry Kane.

Liverpool's Mohamed Salah is third with 13 goals to his name.
Arsenal currently sit fifth in the Premier League, three points behind Chelsea as they look to secure a Champions League place by finishing in the top four.
Aubameyang was rested for the 3-0 FA Cup third round win against Blackpool at the weekend.
The Gunners went on to draw Manchester United as they look to progress in the competition.
Arsenal return to action against West Ham in the Premier League on Saturday (12.30pm).
Unai Emery is expected to restore Aubameyang to his starting line-up.
