Musty smell in wardrobes - do these work?

I've had some mild mould issues in a couple of free standing wardrobes. I have emptied them, cleaned them with bleach, washed most clothes with Napisan and got rid of the mouldy items (a couple of old leather belts, etc). I have also placed them in a different room which does not have the previous humidity issue and keep a few dehumidifying bags in them that I replace when necessary.

However, the odour has not gone away completely and I can smell it when I put my clothes on. Is there anything new that works? Like carbon filters, UV lights or ozone disinfectant that I can stick inside the wardrobe for an hour or so and gets rid of the smell without introducing a new smell IYSWIM?

Would something like these work?

Or these? I tried with pure charcoal (the kind used for barbecues and didn't work)
