Leos are known for their fierce loyalty and flare for the dramatic. It's only fitting that the passionate, confident Leo has a showstopping scent to match — that's why our pick for Leos is Ex On The Beach, a fragrance that combines fig, ylang-ylang, orange blossom, jasmine, peony, and cedarwood.
Even so, Leos have a natural warmth that draws you in and always leaves you wanting more. For that reason, Leo's are among the salted caramel and dulce de leche flavors of the zodiac.

Leos tend to gravitate towards fellow fixed signs, Scorpio and Aquarius. Scorpios understand Leo's need for loyalty, and they both crave a lot of intensity when they're dating someone.

Leos love to be the centre of attention and need a pet that enjoys such attention too. A cat could be a nice option for them as felines are good at attracting other's attention, and won't bother the owner much as it stays busy in its own world.
