Hello, all!
So, I ordered my first humidor (25ct) from an online dealer (not Cigar.com) 2 weeks ago with Aromatic Spanish Cedar Lining before I discovered this forum. I received it today and when I opened it, the smell from the cedar was overwhelming. I've read a lot of the posts concerning humidor conditioning, etc., which were all very helpful by the way, but did not see this addressed.
I have left it open for a couple of hours now in an attempt to air it out, and have only succeeded in making my bedroom smell like cedar. :?
Is there any way to get rid of or dampen the smell? Is this normal? Could this be detrimental to my cigars? Can this be fixed?
