how to get rid off dusty smell from a chair?

We bought a second hand nursing chair (it ricks and reclines :) love it). However, the upholstery does smell of dust. My local dry cleaner will not clean it, as the upholstery does not comes off. So I washed it all yesterday in a bath (hell of a job). It is all dry now, but the smell is still there... Has anyone got an idea how to get rid off this dusty smell, or will it go away by itself? I would prefer something more then Feebreze...

sprinkle on soda crystals, leave for a day and then hoover off?
works well with smelly carpets, so why not a chair?

oh thank you! Will soda crystals not stain the upholstery though?

shouldn't stain, but read the label first (if there is any)
