It's normal for leather to have a specific smell. Sometimes, new leather bags can have a stronger smell. This happens because leather is a natural product. In order to tackle this, you should hang your bag outside and air it. Regularly using your new bag also helps to remove unwanted smells. If this does not help, put folded paper or a scented bag inside the bag and change it every few days until the smell disappears.
Our Leathercare recommendations
- We recommend that you avoid exposing your bag to direct water and moisture without using a waterproof spray. Also, if you get caught in the rain, it's normal for the drops to leave temporary bubble-like stains. Don't worry, they'll fade away quickly!
- We also recommend that you avoid using direct heat, such as radiators or fans, to dry your bag. If exposed to this type of heat, the leather might change its shape and texture
- Before using any leather care products, always start with a small amount and apply it to inconspicuous areas
