The sponsorship programme feeds into Lynx's existing body of marketing activity for Attract, its first unisex variant.

Edinburgh Zoo houses giant pandas Tian Tian and Yang Guang, on loan from China for a 10-year period, as part of a panda research and conservation programme.

Kieran Danaher, Lynx Attract brand manager, said: "With the launch of Lynx Attract For Him and For Her we've effectively doubled the power of the Lynx Effect – it's the perfect time to partner with Edinburgh Zoo and use our attraction knowhow to help out with panda-mating season."
