Yes - as per Mr Smith - a beeswax mix, there is another brand called 'Snowproof' or something similar. Also use a little all year round as it also prevents the leather eventually cracking from sun exposure. If you really want to do a job on it you can melt it in with a hairdryer! (but not if the saddle is wet, wait for it to dry first, wet leather heated cracks, let it dry out slowly). You will find that with a few coats it will become waterproof. After it has soaked in/hardened rub it with a cloth to buff up and remove any excess.
