Leatherique - this stuff really works!

I admit it...I'm a manic detailer...I try everything car related to see what works.
In the search for the best leather care products, I think I'll join the club and recommend Leatherique to anyone who is looking to keep their leather soft.
I've been using it on my non-Saab...an '89 Peugeot 405 Mi16. I'm amazed at what it's done for the seats. When I bought the car in 2000 to restore, the leather was in OK shape...the stitching had split on the top of the back seat where the sun had hit them, and the front passenger seat was pretty dry. Until recently, I've been using Meguiar's Gold Class which was doing a pretty good job or Autoglym Leather Care, which works well, but smells pretty nasty.
This fall, I started using Leatherique, and it's amazing what this stuff does. The oil takes a while to absorb into the seats, and needs a good warm interior to work effectively, but I'm amazed at how well it works. I've been applying it liberally, and the back seat leather is started to develop little tufts, meaning the leather is stretching thanks to the moisture. My hope is to use it enough to make it possible to restitch the back seat. The front passenger seat feels soft and supple now too.
I plan to use it liberally this spring on my '91 900TC to bring those seats back to like-new condition as well.
No French car jokes, please! ;-)
