Love the site but I'm not experiencing the great customer service that everyone talks about.

    Just opened a bottle of Griot Leather Spray and it smells like most leather products. Far from being horrendous.

    I feel similarly about Meg's D115 wash & wax. It has a strong scent which fills my whole garage and lingers for hours. I can't stand it and will never use the product again. Others have posted that they like the scent of D115 and are quite happy with it. Different strokes for different folks I guess, but it made me realize that everyone perceives smell/scent differently.

    Regarding reviews, I also submitted a negative review over on ACC last year regarding Polish Angel's Venice Leather Brush. The thing shed small bristles all over my seats and was a real PITA to clean up after. I was p.o.'d and sent in a pretty scathing review. It was never posted and I never received any type of response. I also never received the 5 rewards points they offer at Autopia for submitting a review. Had the same feelings you are experiencing right now, but the best thing I did is to take a deep breath and just let it go.

    For the record, the brush was the ONLY Polish Angel product I have been disappointed with. I think you will find the same thing with Griots products.
    Yeah like Skunky, Nasty, Stinky, Rank smelling Ironx

    I think Zaino Leather in a bottle is hard to beat as far as a leather scent.

    Does it smell like leather or it’s own distinctive scent?

    Smells like real leather and it lingers for awhile.

    Interesting. My bottle smells pretty bad... very pungent and kinda bitter/sour. And it stuck around for like a week. Then I put some Zymol conditioner one it and the smell was gone... actually smelled good. Maybe I got a bad batch.
