How to get cigarette smell out of wood?

Hi all,
Got a cotbed off marketplace yesterday (without mattress). A relative picked it up for me as I don’t have a car. It looks lovely but absolutely reeks of cigarette smoke.😣I have a sinus infection so initially didn’t smell it but have had the parts for it stored in my bedroom overnight and this morning the whole room smelt of stale cigarettes. Had a sniff of the cotbed and it’s definitely coming from there.
Is there any way to get rid of the smell? It’s a good brand and seems in very good condition apart from the smell.
Any advice appreciated!

Spray with white vinegar and wipe with a cloth, allow to dry and wait until the smell has gone

I wouldn’t be putting a baby anywhere near it.

Some people can't afford brand new. And don't you dare reply with the usual "if you can't afford a bed for your child, you should've had them". Op has it now, so comments like that are useless and will just make other parents less financially stable feel bad so just stop with it
