Default Leather smell

OK I know everyone's nose is a bit different, but I notice when I use various leather cleaners and products on my interior - I smell something other than leather. Any ideas on how to get the luxurious leather smell back in the car.. Or is there such a thing as "the smell of leather".

One word, Gliptone. You can't beat it in my opinion.

I have to disagree on Gliptone.

Their leather cleaner is excellent but their liquid leather conditioner leaves a smell like wet cardboard!

I use the AutoGlym products on my leather. The smell is very pleasant and not overwhelming. They are now available at Canadian Tire. It's what the Queen uses on her Jag.
