Musty smells are caused by mould so will need something anti-bacterial to properly get rid of the smell and the source of it, rather than mask with normal cleaners. Clear distilled vinegar diluted 50/50 with water works well but to be thorough you will need to strip the seats/interior out to make sure you get at all the mould. Works a treat if you can be bothered though.
Steam cleaners are probably worth a try as well but I've used the vinegar method on a leather recliner that had been left in a damp conservatory and had mouldy patches on, smelt very strong of mould and now looks/smells like new.
