How to Remove Smoke and Odor From Clothes

Sometimes you come home from a night out and your clothes smell of smoke and various other odors. All you want to do--short of fumigating your clothes--is rid them of the smell. But how, short of washing them? A few quick and easy steps....and before long, presto, the smells are gone from your clothes!

Things You'll Need

• Odor removing spray
• Hangers

Instructions

1. Hang smoke filled clothes on a hanger as soon as you get home.

2. Buy an odor removing spray that you can easily purchase at any travel item store or home supply store like Bed, Bath & Beyond.

3. Cover the clothing with an odor removing spray and let it soak in for a few minutes. The lemony scent of the spray will cling onto the smoke infused piece of clothing and absorb it, leaving only the lemony scent to dominate.

4. Spray the item a second time and leave it to dry if the smell lingers. These sprays are usually quick drying and very effective on the first try. However, peskier scents may take a little more effort and a little longer to remove.

5. Leave the item of clothing still hanging and let it air dry.
