Leather smell?

[CenTexan]

Does your car smell like it really has a leather interior?

I've got the "ultra-premium" leather on my 2011 and there is almost no leather smell at all. In fact, almost no "new car smell" of any kind. Not that that's a particularly bad thing, but . . . my 11 year old BMW Z3 still smells (mm .. ) like (beautiful saddle brown) leather inside.

Just curious . .

My Wife's 2007 G35 still has the great leather smell, but my premium leather Genesis Sedan has no leather odor.

I suspect it has to do with the tanning process, but I miss the smell, too. For what it's worth, my 2004 VW Phaeton had ultra "sensitive touch" leather, but never had the leather odor, either.

sat in one 4.6 today and not impress by the leather at all. Seems stretched out... dunno
