Clarinet odor

Author: CDB

I bought a beautiful Noblet clarinet that had obviously sat in a case for a long period. Pads and cork are new, and it plays like a dream. The wood appears to be in excellent condition.
Unfortunately, the inside smells quite strong. It's not a mildew-odor, but it's not pleasant. My duet partner has actually complained!
Other than leaving it out of the case to air out, is there anything I can do to get rid of the odor? Thanks for all comments-
