Never use cooking oils (like olive oil), they go rancid over time. As said before, let it age- it was well conditioned at the tannery. The oils from you skin will permeate it and it will darken on its own. If it were to dry out rapidly from something like salt water exposure, followed by a day in the sun, then yes, leather conditioner or oils may be needed but they will darken the leather.
