My apartment stinks. I wouldn't mind it so much, but it is making my clothes stink. And when my clothes stink, I feel dirty and gross. I've tried all I know to do, so I'm hoping someone else will have a bright idea to help!
I think the people prior were smokers, as when I moved in the apartment had a definite odor to it. Then I was given an entire kitchen, end table, and couch from Mike after his uncle passed away and they came from a house whose residents were very heavy smokers. So that didn't help.
I've cleaned the dishwear and attacked the carpet and the couch with a carpet cleaner. The couch now smells fine and the apartment smells much better. I've left my windows open with fans running for an entire day (but due to the area I'm in, I'm not really comfortable leaving them open unsupervised for long periods of time.) I bought a cheap little air freshner thing, and sprayed my Nature's Maricle stuff all over the place. But whenever I wear clothes out, they still stink!
I'm going to get some incense sticks next...but I'm not really sure what else I should be doing. Potpourri in my closet/desser, maybe? I just hate smelling dirty.
