hi Echoes. I know its not the same smell. But when i moved into the fema trailer the formeldahyde they used to build it was strong. So strong my eyes would tear the instant i walked in.

In getting rid of that smell i kept all the windows open and the a/c running while burning nag champa. after awhile i would turn off the a/c but keep the windows open. It took a few weeks for the smell to go away and the burning eyes, but it did go away.

I dont know if that might be of some help with getting rid of the smoke smell. I hope you find something. I couldnt live inside a house tainted with smoke either.
