How do I remove a musty/flowery odor from my built in dresser drawers? There is no visible mold or mildew and no apparent water damage. I think someone may have used potpourri or perfume in the drawers.

An open box of baking soda works in the fridge and in the oven... I think it would work in drawers too. Seems that it has some odor absorbing ability to it.

Cedar bags/chips/balls are also great for that :)
