    I would::think:

    Open the windows.

    Febeeze the soft furnishings.

    Do you have any joss sticks? I find they're brilliant in getting rid of smells, light one upstairs and one downstairs the smell should drift round the house nicely.

    Alternatively bake some cakes or bread :D

    Good Luck!
