For those of you who are struggling to get rid of any unwanted/unpleasant smell from your handbag or SLG, I'd like to recommend the Zero Odor.
I have a white MC Alexander Wallet from 2008 that I occasionally use. The last time I used it (2014), I had a pregnancy craving for fries so I went to McD. I went to the drive thru, paid with cash, stuffed the change into my wallet, and drove home. The next day on my way to work, I noticed there was a strong, overwhelming perfume smell in my car. I don't use any perfume nor there was any air freshener in my car so I wasn't sure where the smell was coming from. It was so overwhelming that I got a huge headache (I think I was also overly sensitive to smells as I was pregnant). Later I found out that the smell was coming from my wallet... Apparently someone had sprayed perfume on one of the dollar bills that I had gotten back as change at McD. I tried airing out the wallet by the window (for months), baking soda, dryer sheets, and leather cleaner... Nothing worked! I was so upset and I couldn't deal with the smell (it was really strong!) so I stopped using the wallet. Fast forward to last week, I came across the Zero Odor on Amazon and decided to give it a try. It arrived today and I immediately sprayed some on the wallet. I was nervous since I wasn't sure if it'd leave water mark on the vachetta leather... And fortunately, it didn't! No water mark, no stain, nothing! I sprayed 6-8 times on the wallet, let it dry for 30 minutes, and repeated 2 more times. Then I cleaned it with leather cleaner (Cadillac) and voila! The smell is 95% gone!! I can only smell a very faint of perfume if I put it against my nose. I just wanted to share this positive experience with you and hope it'll help some of you getting rid of any unwanted smell from your lovely bag/SLG. Thanks for reading! [emoji177]
