How do I get the odor of perfume OUT of my phone handset?!

[bertha katzenengel]

Someone borrowed my phone yesterday - someone who marinates in her perfume - and I can't get it out of my phone! I am fumigated everytime I use it! I've tried alcohol wipes and Clorox wipes and Lysol spray and it's still there!

HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP!!

1. Spray it with a skunk?

Honestly, after washing it with soap and water I'd try Febreeze.

2. That would be preferable.

I think the scent is called "Beautiful." It's beautiful, probably, to some people, with a simple dab on the neck. NOT THIS. AAAAHHHHHHHHH

3. try vinegar

4. Try straight rubbing alcohol.

Not those pansy wipes.

My logic is that perfume is mostly alcohol, so you'd be using a similar substance to lift the offending compounds from the plastic of your phone.

If that doesn't work, try a solvent like Goof Off. (just stay away from your phone for a few minutes after cleaning it with that huffage)
