Firstly, I don't even want to know how you've ended up with the smell of feces on your leather seats!
Secondly, you should count yourself lucky that you're dealing with leather- if this 'accident' had happened on fabric seats, you'd have a much tougher job ahead of you.
To remove any sort of bad odor from leather seating, I'd recommend giving the affected area a good clean. You can then follow this up with several different homemade treatments.
How to remove the smell of feces from leather
Giving your leather seats some fresh air for around 24 hours is a good place to start. No point keeping that smell trapped in an enclosed space.
You'll then need to opt for some leather-specific cleaning techniques:

You'll then need to opt for some leather-specific cleaning techniques:
- Brush the area with a soft brush (to remove any remaining debris)
- Wipe the area using leather cleaner and a soft rag (we use Mothers Leather Cleaner on our car)
- Spray the area with a mixture of 1:5 white vinegar to water
- Sprinkle some baking soda on the offensive area
I'd also recommend trying some linseed oil for aftercare. I haven't tried this yet- but apparently it's awesome.
