PERSISTANT ODOR USUALLY ARE EMITTED BY THE UNFINISHED SURFACES OF WOODEN FURNITURE, I.E. INSIDE CARCASSE, UNDERSIDE OF DRAWERS, ETC. MASKING AGENTS LIKE DEODORIZERS WILL NOT DO. PERMANENT CURE IS TO SEAL THE ODOR AWAY. THE EASIEST AND SAFEST WAY TO DO AT HOME IS WITH SHELLAC. THERE ARE PRODUCTS LIKE "BULLS EYE SPRAY SHELLAC" IN CANS AVAILABLE IN HARWARE STORES. SOLVENT IS ALCOHOL, SO APPLICATION IS RECOMENDED OUTSIDE. PROTECT FINISHED SURFACES,COVER ALL RAW WOOD SURFACES WITH EVEN SPRAY FILM. MIGHT HAVE TO APPLY TWICE. THIS SHOULD CURE THE PROBLEM PERMANTLY. GOOD LUCK! :-)
