Getting paint smell out of furniture?

Recently bought a dresser that was repainted. I've had the drawers out for a few weeks, but it still smells like paint in the room. Any suggestions on how to get rid of that smell? I've read online that putting it in the sun for a few hours will zap it. Any tried and true techniques will be appreciated. TIA

Paint smell will go away when it is cured. Apparently it was painted not that long ago and maybe with enamel paint? That will take a while to cure. Warm temps will help. If you have it in a room like a bed room, you risk the smell getting into other absorbent materials, like a mattress, etc.
