Default How to obtain new car leather smell

Does anyone know how to obtain the new car smell again? Im pretty sure its the smell from new leather, but not so sure. If it is, i am thinking about getting the one from Zaino, i use their products and have not been let down by them.

Anyone else know how? Other than, buying another IS?

I've messed with a lot of cleaners and conditioners and always end up going back to Z9 and Z10 - my car has that nice new leather smell all the time. I really like it - ymmv!

I also use the two leather products from Zaino - great stuff BUT I also do a little 'trick' to keep that leather smell..

I get one of these and just cut the top off the plastic (too strong if you take it out while new) and put it in the seat pocket at the back of the passenger seat.
