Unfortunately the tar & nicotine go right in to the microfiber & the padding. The easiest fix would be to spray Febreze on it, everywhere. You'd have to use quite a lot! Second idea is if you can get the cushions off you can wash them in cold water with a little soap & here's the magic ingredient: Coca-Cola.Yes! Coke is what the pros recommended we used to get the nasty smoke smell out of my washable things after we had a house fire. If those 2 don't work there's a surefire way to get rid of that smell.

Rent an Ozone Machine for half a day & run it at full blast in the same room as the couch with no humans near. (The ozone removes some of the oxygen, so you want to be outside or in another room) The pros our insurance company hired to clean up after our fire brought in a big ozone machine & our huge house smelled as fresh as a summer storm after 2 days of that wonderful machine running!
