    Leather Smell?

    Are there any dressings or other interior products that have a true leather smell? Too often, those products advertised to have that "New Car Leather Smell" are more reminiscent of a mules's rear end (and yes.... I would know as I worked on my grandfather's farm as a kid, picking tobacco leaves behind a mule pulling a sled)

    I've always really liked Zaino Z10 (Duragloss 221).

    Meguiar's M40 is a great interior product which leaves the surface looking gorgeous and a nice leathery scent.

    Optimum protectant plus and Wolfgang leather conditioner both leave a pleasant leather smell behind.

    You know Jim, I've had a sample of Optimum Protectant Plus that I haven't tried. Maybe today is a good day to give it a try!

    Not a big fan of Zaino but you can't beat the leather smell in the Z10.

    I just tried it this week and I really like it. Not shiny and gives leather a really nice feel. Actually it does a nice job of cleaning leather that is mildy soiled. (You will need a specific cleaner such as OPC for the nasty stuff)
