I bought a brand new 2011 coat but it stinks like warehouse odor

Bought a brand new 100% cotton coat for a cheap price. It's from 2011 of May so it's been sitting in their warehouse for that long. They didn't seal shut the plastic bag to prevent odor for going in. The smell is not that strong but when you take a good close wiff it's funky.

I bought some charcoal material suit covers on ebay hopefully it will help to kill the odor but is there something else I can do? I don't want to wash the coat it's brand new and I don't want to take it to the dry cleaners.

Do you think if I wear it often outside the smell will eventually die? Or should I stick some bars of soap in the dust bag? I heard Safeguard soap works.

Any advice is greatly appreciated. I thought about spraying some Armani code cologne on it but maybe that will make things worse?

Thanks for the advise guys.

Been wanting to purchase a steamer for the longest not a bad idea.

I'm going to try and put a box of baking soda inside the dust cover bag for a whole week and see if I get results.

I could return the coat for a refund but I got it at a steal.

Thanks everyone for tips and advice!

I will give an update in a couple of weeks.

Update:

The smell of my coat is completely gone. Apparently the charcoal covers I bought from ebay did the job in eradicating the smell.



They are cheaply made in china covers. The plastic see through is thin and cheap but I guess because of the charcoal material fabric they are effective in absorbing bad odors.

Guys I don't sell on ebay. I edited my post.

Those covers are sold by chinese sellers, I'm not chinese. I'm not here for that shit stop acting like little drama queens!

The covers are cheap material crap but I they work because my coat does not smell like warehouse anymore.
