Got creosote on some corduroy trousers while painting a fence. Swmbo says she washed them in her precious Miele, but on the past she has refused to use it for clothes that were too dirty, they still pong a bit. Personally i don't mind the smell of creosote, goes well with a dash of Jeyes fluid, but she witters on about it.

I find rotting fish tends to mask other odours pretty well.
