I would start with Murphy's Oil Soap, Dawn. And, yes, you can remove the hardware for cleaning.
Thanks would you know of anything I can soak them in

Just soak in hot soapy water with Dawn.
I used orange and lemon oil and it worked very well.
Baking soda, water, and an essential oil that you like. Make ingredients into a scrubbable paste, scrub each drawer but do not rinse. Let sit for a few days with the drawers closed. Then carefully rinse until surfaces are clean. Let dry thoroughly. You can certainly remove the drawer hardware too. Enjoy your new dresser!
A bowl of white vinegar set inside drawers. The smells will leave and the bowls of vinegar are removed.
