I just love this stuff. I have used it to remove stains I thought were set for life. It was recommended to me by someone who has a baby and she washes her baby's clothes in it. I checked the label and it says it is a deoderizer, also. I think if you soak your clothes in an Oxi Clean Solution, it would take the smell out. Read the label and follow their directions. I am talking about the original Oxi Clean, which is a white powder sold in various size plastic containers. The first container I bought was 1.5 lbs, the next one 12 lbs. That's how much I like this product I have used it to remove stains from both clothing and carpet that I thought would never come out.
