Now if you just lightly spread it on top and left it like that I would think that much of it would evaporate.
Really good experiment though and I think it shows the need to really work conditioner into the leather to get it to absorb it into the pores so it doesn't just evaporate and thus be just a waste of time and money.

True, but there isnt a protective coating on your skin covering the pours. Now if we're talking about leather that ISNT coated, then that would be the case.
