I have a trunk from the 1960's and it now has a closed-up smell inside. I have tried Febreze a couple of times and that didn't work. Then I tried a potpourri sachet and that also didn't work.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can freshen up the inside of this trunk.
I use it to store extra blankets and pillows.
Thank you.

Go to Lowes and buy a cedar block, it will make it smell great. They are very inexpensive.

A simple economical way is to simply add some dryer sheets that smell good.

Charcoal is a great odor neutralizer.Try using charcoal with a few dryer sheets.

I agree with Shirley
First make sure that there is no mould spores under the lining.
If so have it relined.
Nothing will help otherwise

i use odoban for everything...carpet etc. mix it with water and spray..it gets rid of odors instead of masking them...it's in the big box stores like sam's and costco....professionals use it....but i think places like walmart carries it now..in dresser drawers and closets i place downy softener sheets..
