Removing Cooking Smells After Frying Fish

I have tried the vinegar on the stove thing but nothing works as well as the "pure air" candle I just bought from my local Oreck store.. they said it would even take the bacon smell out and it did.. I also tried it with fried redfish and it works.I think burning candles works the best.

I think that's just the nature of cooking fish. :) Tastes great, stinks up the house.
If you like lavendar, this might be helpful (and nice, anyway) in the kitchen:

Boil vinegar and water on stove for a few minutes. Works for old cigarette smoke odor also.

After frying fish, I set out a small bowl of lemon ammonia & leave it overnight. Works like a charm.

If you will set a lighted candle close by when frying fish (or most any 'smelly' thing) it will remove the smell without it getting all into the house.

When use of extractor fan or prolonged wide-opening of windows is not an option, just how does one effectively get rid of cooking smells after a big fry-up, particularly of fish? YT in London
