Hi Folks,
I know this has been discussed ad nauseum, so my apologies up front.
I have some customers - including my wife, the important one - who are a bit sensitive to strong scents. Accordingly, finding the right leather conditioner has been an adventure. I've resorted to using Zymol as my go-to, even though the non-odoriferous (is that a word?) results aren't as good as others.
In my arsenal I've got Lexol, Four Star, Zymol, Poorboys Leather Stuff, and most recently Zaino. In my experience, the results from Lexol, Poorboys, and Zaino are awesome. Good, gentle cleaning, and seemingly very effective conditioning without a slick or greasy residue. The problem is with the odor. Not so much that it stinks but that it's strong and not exactly pleasant. Four Star and Zymol seem very similar - both work well and smell good, but even the lightest of conditioner coats requires follow-up effort to remove the slickness.
Any recommendations for a product that works great, yet doesn't overpower the senses? Alternatively, any application advice for the above products? I'd like to think my technique is sound, and I've read how-to articles which seem to confirm that, but I'm always open to learning more. Thanks in advance!
