how about febreeze or ozium?
Place them in a garmet bag or large platic container with cedar balls or chips for about a week. They will help absorb the odor.
Separately. Not one method can be used for all. First the leather goods, try putting the them in a plastic bags with a few dryer sheets. Only put one leather good in each item. If that doesn't do the trick you will probably have to take them to a special dry cleaner that works with leather.
Anything made from wood first try furniture polish, then a few drop of lemon oil (get that at a health food store). However, tobacco seep into the wood its very difficult to get out. Good luck
I'm a smoker and I know that backing soda gets smoke smell out of clothes. Backing soda is a natural odor elemator. Put your gloves in a big baggie with some backing soda. I would forget about them for a day or two and they won't smell any more.
