Default Best way to get cologne smell off of painted shelf?

I just moved into a new apartment and the linen closet has this smell in it
which smells like Old Spice or something. Looking closely at the shelves,
I can see a few spots that look like something was spilled (these spots
smell the strongest.

What can I use to clean this?

Also, the unpainted wood doors have a bad odor...not sure why...can I use
furniture polish on them? They're the cheapie, light wood doors that have
a thin laminate? maybe...there not solid wood. They're not painted.
