    Hello joolies. Shelly - I bought a few items at the thrift only to come home and notice some of them smelled with perfume. Hung it out in the garage and thought that a week or so in cold temperatures (remember I'm up north with the snow) would take care of the matter. The scent lingered - put it back out for another week and that helped a bit. I've also been known to hang them outdoors when there's a breeze to help the airing out process. Or you might try the Fabreeze again - every few days or perhaps put it in a trunk or box and spray over it - or even put in some charcoal (in a little cloth bag to protect it from getting item dirty) or even a container of some baking soda and leave for a few days and then let it air out in the fresh air. Surprising how some smells/scents permeate. Marson
