Laundry Tricks : Remove Cigarette Smells

Every time you go out to a bar you have the same problem. All your clothes smell like cigarette smoke by the end of the night. Is there a way to freshen up the shirt?

Place a moist towel over the soiled shirt and iron it. You will find that the towel smells bad, but the shirt is nice and fresh.

The steam from the moist towel and hot iron react with the tar on your shirt, lifting out the smell and depositing it on the towel. The molecules of stink are not gone, but they aren't on the shirt anymore.
