I use the Chamois made from lamb..they are tanned with oil. You need to wash out the oils prior to use. Maybe you have never used a genuine non-synthetic chamois perhaps?
An excerpt.

"How to care for my Chamois ?
Give it a good rinse in lukewarm water with a mild non-alkali soap, or mild detergent. Squeeze/wring Chamois to remove excess water. Gently stretch, and hang in area protected from direct sunlight and intense heat. Take care not to over dry".
