I've tried a few different leather cleaners and so far they work well but do NOT smell very good at all.

I even got a few smelling opinions from some friends and family to make sure my nose senses were not off lol and sure enough they also said the same.

So do any of you have some suggestions for good smelling great performing leather conditioners especially considering this will be what my clients will be smelling?

Also as a leather "cleaner" not conditioner treatment, I heard that the meguiars all purpose (green bottle) cleaner works well and is safe on leather before conditioning it if diluted well... In your professional opinons what do you all think, true or false?

I've used a lot of different leather products one of my favorite was the Zaino Z10 already mentioned. You can find the same at AG: Duragloss Leather Conditioner #221 (http://www.autogeek.net/duragloss-leather-conditioner.html)

I do not use "conditioners" on automotive leathers.
I use Leather Masters leather cleaners and protectors.

This is an excellent kit:
Leather Master Car Leather Protection & Cleaner Kit, Leather Master Ink Away Ink Remover, ink lifter, leather cleaner, leather protection (http://www.autogeek.net/leather-master-kit-ink-away.html)

A damp towel might be sufficient for light cleaning, especially on coated leather. For all other needs I use LeatherMasters. No heavy or fake smell, just a good product that appears to work as described.

If you want a heavy leather scent, might wanna explore some of the bombs or air fresheners.

What have you tried?

The word "conditioner" is another term that can mean many things. It can be intended for protected (coated) leather or uncoated leather.

The majority of leather in cars is coated and if you have natural you will notice it is different.

Something like Poorboy's Leather Stuff has an added leather scent. Leather Master's Protection Cream is fairly neutral.

After reading all of Bob's advice. Leather masters is what I use. I don't think theres a scent. After reading up on leather, keeping it clean is pretty much all that needs to be done.

It's true, keeping it clean is all it needs, but I choose to use a post cleaning product whether it needs it or not because I like the way it looks, feels, and smells afterward.
Z-10 is the one Z habit I can't shake.

Griot's leather conditioner smells like they melted a baseball glove into the bottle!
