MB Tex- cleaner/protector with leather smell
Hi All:
I have an R-Class with the MB tex interior and currently use an orange based cleaner and follow up with 303 as a protectant. Love 303 but wish it had a more leathery smell. Can anyone recommend a vinyl protectant that has a stronger leather smell? Thanks.

I don't have an answer for you, but I'd like to know who would produce a MB Tex (vinyl) protective dressing that smells like leather.
Is is a serious question

Yes, it is a serious question! 
I guess what I'm asking is there an interior vinyl dressing that doesn't have a chemical smell but a more natural leather smell.

Continue to use Aerospace 303 . . . then keep a nicely oiled baseball mit on the rear seat which will maintain a natural leather smell, not a fake one.

Adam's Polishes Leather Conditioner has a natural leather smell...his VRT (Vinyl, Rubber, and Tire) has a slight cherry smell.
Poorboy's Leather Stuff has a leather smell, as does Zaino's leather in a bottle.

The new version of Optimum Protectant Plus has a nice leather scent, not sure if all the old stock has been sold out though. It has a similar light sheen like 303 and it contains UV inhibitors.
