Good saddle soap and if that doesn't work then bury it in powdered charcoal or diatomacious earth. Bad spelling probably. Anyway you should be able to get a good sized, cheap bag from any auto parts store. One of the uses is soaking up oil spills but it is very absorbent and works for a lot of stuff. Powdered charcoal would be better probably but I am not sure where you can get some. Do not try crushing match-light charcoal. You need pure charcoal for this. I guess you could burn a stack of maple like the whiskey distillers do, depending on where you live.

Oh, I'm going to give it two. I openned the ziplock and it just about knocked me off my feet it was so foul.
That is surprising. I am shocked. What exactly stank up the leather in the first place? Maybe it does need a good washing and saddling soaping before soaking in diatomaceous earth or powdered charcoal.
