Selle San Marco Rolls care?

Should I treat my Rolls with something to avoid drying it out? What would be a suitable substance? I have a tin of Brooks Proofide, wich i gather might do, but what do other users of this saddle apply, if anything?

asked a similar question here a while back....the only response I got was something like "just don't smell your saddle"...reading between the "lines" I think most people don't do much in the way of saddle maintenance unless its something all leather like a Brooks.

Lexol leather conditioner on the saddle every month or so. Wouldn't hurt.
