Deodorize a room filled with cigarette smoke or paint fumes. Place a small bowl of vinegar in the room.

To add a pleasant scent to a room while at the same time removing an unpleasant odor, add cardamom or other fragrant spice to a bowl of distilled vinegar and place in the warmest corner of the room.
