Neutralise the smell, rather than covering it
Vintage and pre-loved bags often arrive carrying someone else's life. A damp cupboard, a perfume that has turned, years in storage. Shoes hold onto it just as stubbornly. Spraying scent over the top only leaves you with two smells instead of one.
Our deodorising spray works on the odour-causing molecules themselves rather than masking them, so what is left is the bag rather than the bag plus a cover-up.
- Neutralises rather than masks - helps lift musty storage smells, stale pre-loved odours and shoe odour
- Gentle on delicate materials - refreshes without stripping or drying the finish
- Reaches where the smell sits - linings and interiors, not only the outside
How to use
Before first use: our bottles are airless, so a little air can be trapped inside during transit. Hold the bottle upright and press the top steadily - it usually takes around five pumps before the formula begins to flow. Keep it vertical while you do this, as an angled bottle will not release the air and may drip.
The method is not the same for every material.
- Leather - spray two to three times onto an Application Mitt or a clean, dry cloth, then wipe over the surface in light, even passes. Never spray leather directly, as a droplet sitting on a finished surface can leave a water mark as it dries.
- Fabric interiors and linings - hold the bottle 20-30cm away and spray a fine, even mist, keeping your hand moving so no one area takes more than another. Do not saturate.
- Shoes - spray directly inside, or apply with a cloth, and leave overnight.
Leave the bag open to air for at least four hours afterwards, in a well-ventilated room. Overnight is better. Stubborn or long-standing odours need repeating - several light treatments with airing in between will always outperform one heavy one.
For storage afterwards, our Pursefume capsules help keep the inside of the bag fresh between wears.
Always test in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid contact with eyes and mouth.

As Seen In
Loved by women across the world
The Fabric & Leather Deodoriser is the finishing step for pre-loved finds, stored bags and well-worn shoes - freshness without a cover-up.
How to use the Deodoriser
Light applications, fresh air and a little patience. The method changes with the material.
Apply to the mitt or mist the lining
For leather, spray two to three times onto an Application Mitt or clean cloth and wipe over in light, even passes. For linings and fabric, mist from 20-30cm, keeping your hand moving.
Leave open to air
Leave the bag open in a well-ventilated room for at least four hours. Overnight is better. Shoes are sprayed inside and left overnight.
Repeat if needed
Long-standing odours need repeating. Several light treatments with airing in between will always outperform one heavy one, and a vintage bag may need this over several days.
Keep it fresh in storage
Once the bag is fresh, a Pursefume capsule tucked inside keeps it that way between wears.
Freshness for pre-loved finds and well-worn favourites
For the bag that arrived carrying someone else's story, and the shoes that hold onto theirs.
Works on the smell, not over it
Most deodorisers layer a fragrance over the problem. Ours works on the odour-causing molecules themselves, so what is left is the bag rather than the bag plus a cover-up.
- Helps lift musty storage and stale pre-loved smells
- Reaches linings and interiors, where the smell actually sits
- Gentle on leather, coated canvas and fabric
Refill and save
Add the Refill Pouch so every pre-loved find and every pair of shoes can be refreshed without running out. Choose the Bottle and Refill Pouch together for the best value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Shipping
Please refer to our shipping page for information.
Does it mask the smell or remove it?
It neutralises. The formula works on the odour-causing molecules themselves rather than laying a scent over the top, so what is left is the bag rather than the bag plus a cover-up.
Can I spray it straight onto leather?
No. Spray two to three times onto an Application Mitt or a clean, dry cloth and wipe over in light, even passes. A droplet sitting on a finished leather surface can leave a water mark as it dries. Fabric linings and shoe interiors can be misted directly from 20-30cm.
Will one treatment be enough for a vintage bag?
Often not. Long-standing odours, such as a damp cupboard or years in storage, need repeating. Several light treatments with airing in between will always outperform one heavy one, and a vintage bag may need this over several days. Pursefume capsules help keep it fresh afterwards.
Is it safe on suede or nubuck?
No. The Deodoriser is not suitable for suede or nubuck. It is tried and tested on Empreinte, canvas, Epi, caviar, lambskin, grained leathers, Togo and Epsom, as well as fabric linings and shoe interiors.
