I have a wooden drawer that had incense stored in it for a few years. There were a bunch of papers and stuff sitting in the same drawer. Now the drawers and their contents smell heavily of incense. I can't stand the smell. I've disposed of the incense and removed, cleaned, and let the drawers and contents air out for a few weeks, but I can still smell it. Is there a way to get rid of the smell completely? If nothing else, will it go away over time now that the incense is removed?

Lots of simple hints.

Okay, thanks. I've already tried vinegar (which is the main thing I use to clean with in general) and baking soda. I guess I'll try the charcoal next.

call up a dry cleaner or carpet cleaner and ask if they can ozone it for you. they will probably say no but it's worth a shot

I just thought I'd share the fact that the stand for that incense stick is actually the metal shank from a shoe.

Looks like a typical incense holder to me

dont know about incense, but smoke odor and stuff is often removed by sitting an open bowl of ground coffee beans inside for example
could give it a try
