I use the amerigo solft clean/soft oil and another profuct by them, it smells great and works really nicely and isn't hard on the leather.

Warm water, followed by Oakwood Leather Conditioner.

Sometimes I'll use saddle soap (i have two that i like - one comes in a bright orange container, the other is Fiebing Saddle Soap) before conditioning.

I occasionally oil my bridle because it gets all stiff and gross if it's not being used.

But I am the laziest tack cleaner ever. I don't even remember the last time I cleaned my saddle! Really should do that!

Glycerine soap (very little soap, plenty of water) and Passier leather balsam. No oil, ever. :)

I use the Passier saddle soap after every ride (and give it a good wipe down with a clean, damp sponge after), and once every 2-3 weeks I use the Passier leather balm.
