Would you be kind enough to specify the problem so we can help you? Thanks!

I tried that, but smell is still lingering on. It is a lovely antique round box wit a removable top. It is from Rumaenia and lovely painted. But the potpourri smell is so intense.
Did you ever find a solution? We have the exact same issue with a butler pantry cabinet. The overpowering smell of potpourri is horrible. It is almost as if it is infused in the wood.

Please advise if you have had any breakthroughs.
