I'm kinda surprised that nobody's done that. The cost of tweaking the scent shouldn't be that much, and then they could label/market it as "official [whatever] leather treatment" with the appropriate hype.

But for practical purposes I'm satisfied with something that just dissipates-to-neutral. LM and Sonus absolutely do *NOT* alter the scent of a vehicle's interior IME.

This has me wondering about the whole "smells like a [particular marque]" issue, wonder how many people here maintain the OE scent

Do you think this is a true statement?

PM me if you would you like to try it out?

I was actually baiting people slightly. As someone told me once, there is a reason tanneries were located on the outskirts of cities.

As for looking at some of your products, I would be glad to try some out. Send me an email. My webpage is in my profile.
