OP says he wiped it down with Vinegar.

I have had success getting rid of that white mold on holsters using Hydrogen Peroxide... soak them.. seal in a zip lock for 24 hours and then air dry them in the garage... takes care of the mold... not sure what it does for smell... this holster was just covered in the white mold inside and out... turned out pretty well.

I used Ozioum spray inside a pickup cab with cloth upholstery that reeked of cigarette smoke. Left windows rolled up a while; no more stink.

I agree with the baking soda suggestions. It works well for removing the musty odor from old books, so it should work on a leather holster.

How did you do it? I tried with some old magazines. Put them in a closed tub with about 2 pounds of baking soda. Then left them for about two weeks and no joy.

Nobody has mentioned it yet - coffee, but only in a dark leather. Or a mixture of coffee and baking soda.
