Removing Smoke Smell from Wood Furniture

I’m a firm believer in the power of Murphy Oil Soap! When we brought the marble coffee table home, it had a lingering cigarette smoke smell. To neutralize the odor, I mixed 1/4 cup of Murphy Oil Soap with a gallon of warm water and wiped down the wood. The smell disappeared almost instantly.
