This is such a random question, but it's been driving me nuts and you all are a smart bunch. As many of you know I'm living back at home after being displaced by a fire early on in the year. Obviously we have ALL new things so I have a brand new wood dresser (its particle board with the laminate finish, nothing special) and despite having it for almost 4 months now it still reeks to high heaven. All of my clothes come out smelling like chemical coated wood. I have tried dryer sheets, drawer liners, baking soda, odor absorbers, everything. After 5 days it all picks up the smell of the dresser. I personally HATE the smell of cedar and other heavily scented woods and that is what this reminds me of. I'm thinking I may need to try to seal the wood as the inside of the drawers aren't sealed, but then I wonder if that might make it worse and then have my clothes smell like that.
Any ideas?
