When you get a
piece home, clean it well, dust all of the little crevices
and take out any drawers and clean behind them. 
When it is nice and
clean, wipe down the unfinished surfaces with a fabric
softener sheet. Make sure that you hit the insides of
drawers, the back and the bottom. The fabric softener will
seep into the fibers and help freshen the piece. 
You could also
use some wintergreen oil on a cotton ball. Just wipe it
over all of the inside and underneath parts. The
wintergreen oil will linger and make the furniture smell
fresher. 
Put an opened bar
of soap into the drawers or cabinets. This can serve two
purposes if you're using the piece for storing clothes.
The soap also acts as a sachet to freshen your clothes.
