I bought a pre owned designer handbag online. I'm in love, but it REEKS of the smell of weed. It gives me a headache and smells disgusting. How can I remove (not just cover up) the smell?

Maybe try a fabric odor eliminator. They make unscented ones. Also there are sprays that neutralize the smell of weed but you'd have to look that up I don't know what they're called.

Try the odor eliminator made for carpets. It comes in a spray can and sprays out like a foam. Let that sit for a few minutes then wipe off with a damp rag.

Thanks ladies. The outside of the bag is leather and the inside is suede. I wiped the outside down with Lysol Disinfecting wipes and Armor All cleaning wipes just to sanitize it. I sprinkled a bunch of laundry detergent powder inside the bag hoping it would "soak up" the smell. (I was desperate.) To my suprise, we had some Lysol Disinfecting/Odor Eliminating spray in our laundry room so I sprayed the inside down with that. I really don't care about ruining the suede, I just want the smell gone. It smelled good for a few minutes, then it just smelled like weed covered up with perfume. :-( I sprayed a bunch of body spray in it before I left for school this morning and am airing it out. Hopefully it will be okay.
