    Default Best products for neutralizing cigarette smells?

    I take my smoke breaks outside and can neutralize odors with mouthwash and spray afterwards, but things can get nasty in private rooms with chainsmoking customers to the point that the next customers mention it sometimes. Febreeze is good for clothing, but probably drying on hair. Any advice?

    There are some neutralizing odor sprays that you can buy on like Amazon, some are specifically designed for smoking and work pretty well, I used to chain-smoke in my car and would always spray afterwards and it usually got rid of the smell. They're OK to use on leather but I don't about putting them on furniture and whatnot. As for yourself, I would just spray with a strong perfume and maybe some perfumed hair spray/other hair product.

    God, where do you work that you're still allowed to smoke indoors???

    You're allowed to smoke inside private rooms in Manhattan clubs but not on the main floor. I hate that the option is there even as a smoker because I can't resist lighting up with the customer (then it's twice the awful smell!). It's almost worse when the customer is a nonsmoker though because I have to fight the temptation to ask. Most say they don't mind, but I can't shake the feeling that it's extremely unprofessional.

    I'll try switching from body spray to heavier perfumes (they probably smell classier anyway).

    I wish the clubs would just spring for some plug-in Ozone units to run during the day when the club is closed ... something which the hotel chains routinely use to 'kill' lingering cigarette odors when rooms aren't occupied.

    Bed Head makes a product that I used to use years ago - I think it's Afterparty?

    ^I use afterparty but that's a heat protectant, you put it on your hair before straightening/curling not sure how that would help with smells, although the product itself does smell quite good.

    I wouldn't smoke around non-smoking customers, I don't even smoke my e-cigarette around nonsmoking customers just because I can tell it's such a turn off! I would love it though if we could smoke in my club!
