How to Get Rid of Cigarette/Smoke Smell in House?
Does your home stink of cigarette smoke, despite all your best efforts? All the cleaning in the world won’t completely get cigarette odors out of walls, curtains, carpets and furniture. You need a product that can neutralize the odor-causing molecules in cigarette smoke – like Purodora Lab’s Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics & Ambient Air and Smoke Cleaner & Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces. Otherwise the cigarette smell will just come back.
How to get rid of cigarette odors in house
There are plenty of home remedies out there for removing cigarette smells in a house, but these tend to offer mediocre and temporary results at best. Purodora Lab cigarette odor-neutralizing products neutralize the odor-causing molecules in cigarette smoke on contact to eliminate the smell completely. They offer permanent results and leave behind a fresh citrus scent.
How to remove smoke smell from hard surfaces
- Remove any yellowish stains on hard surfaces with a degreaser.
- Dilute 1/8 to 1/2 cup (30ml to 120ml) of Purodora Lab Smoke Cleaner & Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces in 1 gallon ($L) of water.
- Clean all hard surfaces (walls, floors, ceilings, cabinets, etc.) with a clean cloth. No need to rinse. Clean surfaces as long as the water in your bucket is dark.

Nicotine particles especially cling to fabrics and clothing. No matter how many times you wash them, it’s almost impossible to get rid of the smoke odor. To completely eliminate the smell of cigarettes from clothes and fabrics, take the proven route with Purodora Lab products!
To eliminate smoke odors in clothing or fabrics, follow these 2 easy steps:

- Leave the product on the fabric to take effect; do not rinse.
To eliminate cigarette odors in leather sofa
Before using any product on genuine leather, it’s best to always test a non-visible area to ensure it doesn’t discolor. Never spray products directly onto leather. Instead, apply with a clean cloth and rub gently. Also remember to always remove the product after the indicated time with a clean, barely damp cloth. Keep in mind that leather absorbs odors more deeply than fabric, so several treatments may be needed.
- Spray Purodora Lab Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics & Ambient Air on a clean cloth and gently wipe the sofa.
- Allow product to work for 15 minutes.
- Remove with a clean, damp cloth.
How to remove cigarette smell from ambient air
Eliminating cigarette odors in a house WITHOUT a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system:
- Spray Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics & Ambient Air on a clean cloth and place it in front of a fan.
- Run the fan for one hour in each room smelling of cigarette smoke. This will distribute the product in the air where it can reach and neutralize the smoke molecules.
Eliminating cigarette odors in a house WITH a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system:
First, decide if the filters are worth saving and cleaning. If they are very old or very dirty, you’re probably better off replacing them.
IF YOU DECIDE TO GET NEW FILTERS:
Spray the new filters with 2 Tbsp to ½ cup (30 to 120 ml) of Purodora Lab Smoke Cleaner & Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces diluted in 1 gallon (4 L) of water.
Install filters while still wet with product and run the system continuously to distribute the product through the system ducts. Re-spray the filters several times to completely neutralize the odor in the air ducts and ambient air.
IF YOU DECIDE TO CLEAN YOUR EXISTING FILTERS:
Soak the dirty filters in a bucket for 1 hour in 2 Tbsp to ½ cup (30 to 120 ml) of Purodora Lab Smoke Cleaner & Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces diluted in 1 gallon (4 L) of water.
Make sure the filters are completely submerged.
No more smoke smell in your home!
Why is cigarette smell in a home so hard to get rid of?
Cigarette odors are one of the toughest smells to eliminate in a home because the smoke penetrates into all hard and soft surfaces – even the ambient air. Most products sold in stores simply mask the odor; even so-called deodorizers won’t work. The only way to quickly and permanently eliminate stubborn odors like cigarette smoke is by using a product containing an odor neutralizer specific to the molecule.
Eliminating the cigarette smell in your home can take a little while because the smoke can penetrate behind the walls and into the ventilation system. But with Purodora Lab products – along with the right methods and a little patience, your home will soon be free of cigarette odors. Don’t give up; our products are proven to work!
Pro tip
First treatment didn’t do the trick? Don’t worry. It simply means the neutralizer didn’t reach all of the odor-causing molecules. Simply repeat the above steps as needed until all the cigarette smell is gone.
Goodbye cigarette smell!
Getting rid of cigarette smells in your home really is that quick and easy.
