During winter/bad weather I smoke in the house on the vherf. I smoke in the main living area for the house. I crack open a window, and I have a desk fan blowing to the window. I have a smoke eater candle lit close to me. (which you can bid on here). I also have a nice smelling candle or two lit through out the room I'm in and sometimes next room. When I'm done smoking I take the ashtray outside right away. Leave the window open and fan on for another hour. I have an order neutralize spray that I use after that. Next morning, I spray again real fast, light a candle, and any lasting smell is gone with in an hour. My wife didn't want me smoking in the house until she was gone one weekend and I smoked two days in the house, did all this and when she came home she didn't say anything or notice. So a few days later I brought it up and she was fine after that. She enjoys the smell of cigars as I smoke, but not the stale smoke smell. I'm sure there are other things that would be faster or more helpful, but this is what I do and it seems to work.
