New car all leather

With a new car with all leather interior, how soon would you condition the leather. Would you use the Porsche leather conditioner, lexol, hide food or what?
Thanks

I've been using Griot's Garage leather treatment for many years with good results.

I'll second that. It works well and smells great, too.

OK a lot of good product ideas. Thanks So would you do your leather as soon as you take delivery or is the leather fine for a while and if so how long before you clean and condition.

can't hurt - i am finding it more than a little dusty around here lately & warmer than usual so will likely do it one of these weekends.

No reason to wait to condition the leather. do it whenever you like.

I really like Leathermaster for leather products (especially the Rapid S Cleaner). I also like the Zaino Leather In A Bottle (mostly for the smell).

I conditioned my full leather the day I took delivery. It can't hurt and can only help. Plus, it went hand in hand with the full exterior detailing I did.

Good luck, nothing smells quite as good as a full leather P car.
