Have you tried steam? Get a steam iron and pump steam onto it. Don't get the iron too close though as you will scorch the leather.

Regards.

I wouldn't use steam (hair dryers or heat guns as some claim on other sites) could shrink the leather and make it prone to tearing
Regular wipe downs with a well wrung out damp 100% cotton cloth,
If its for very light coloured leather use a white cotton cloth.

Also see someone recommend leaving the damp towel under the seat for few hours aday,
Wondering if its like the mk1 focus recaro leathers can you remove it from the seat ?
