 Odour control, no vent

I need to begin to control the odour of 4 plants, within the next month.
The smell doesn't need to be completely gone - I am growing in my closet and can smoke openly in the house. I really just don't want the entire house to smell like I am growing weed in it.
I am considering scented candles, plug in air fresheners and the other air fresheners that you set on the counter. I also thought about ionizers - although I don't know if I wanna breathe that in.
I do plan to continue smoking buds, so that will give a reason for it to smell a bit. And dogs cover the smell a little bit, but not much.
Also I have thought about a carbon filter, and will go to that level if I have problems controlling the smell.
The plants are some kinda high grades, staring to smell right now at 5 nodes, about 4 weeks old. All are 4-6 inches tall, under 23w daylight CFLs, likely a 400w HPS soon.

Sounds like a carbon fliter is the way to go.

Do ya think throwing one of these behind a fan will work? It says its 2.8 inches thick, and if so... I personally think it might.

I just found a post from someone on another site that used it, and they said it worked.
I plan to wrap it around this. http://www.canadiantire.ca/AST/browse/3/HouseHome/1/HeatingAirConditioning/ElectricFans/PRD~0435622P/Honeywell+8-inch+Super+Tech+Force+High+Performance+Fan.jsp?locale=en
Its about the laziest DIY carbon filter I could come up with.
Thanks for the confirmation guys, I almost got a stupid chemical spray.
Glad I didn't, as I plan to eat these plants!  Well... most of them.
