Hi Darlene, hope this helps you out
Using a soft dry cotton cloth, wipe with the direction of the scales to remove topical dirt and dust. Use a very soft brush to gently remove dirt and dust underneath scales. Do not lift scales. General cleaning of snakeskin, best done with a cotton cloth slightly dampened with plain water.
Condition your snakeskin with an exotic leather conditioner that is specifically listed as being safe for snakeskin, such as Scout Exotic Leather Cleaner & Conditioner or Apple Leather Care (see Resources Section). Apply a thin coating with a soft lint-free cloth, again wiping with the grain of the scales.
Hi Darlene, this is for boots, but you can use the same process to clean your jacket. Hope this is helpful.

Hi Darlene. I did a bit of reading and found this Angelus Reptile/Exotic Skin Leather Cleaner and Conditioner will clean and condition your jacket. You can buy it on Amazon for $9.22 This product can also be used on snakeskin boots and bags. As far as the smell, you can put the jacket in a bag and place some charcoal in with it. Put the charcoal in a dish so that it doesn't touch your jacket. It may take several days for the charcoal to work. Rather than charcoal, baking soda can be used instead. Good luck Darlene.

Hi Darlene,

As any leather you would do
Saddle Soap or Beeswax should do it.
