Never used it since I don't smoke, so thought it'd be a good safe place to keep the bluetooth headset. Washed it out with fairy liquid then some strong citrus smelling hand cleaner but it still REEKS of it's past use :x

Anyone think of anything to get rid of the smell? Don't really fancy the prospect of a headset smelling of ash :|

I am a smoker and always use an orange or better still a lemon cut open and left in the back of the car somewhere for a week or 2 until it dries out, always works before handing a car down? takes the smell from soft interior so should work?
