Burn candles, but not the heavy musky scented ones. I have found that fruity candles, like my grapefruit candle, really fills the room and lingers for a while. That is just a temporary cover up, though. Once you have lived in it for a while, it will pass, and your smell will fill it. Just keep everything clean, vacuum the carpets A LOT, and like he said, put the lime in the coconut.

I have a similar problem- the previous tennant had a dog, so whenever it gets humid, our place smells like urine. That is a more diffucult thing to remove, since it is in the carpets, and I am sure the landlord won't replace them.
