Review on Soul Delight Quilted Throw Blanket by Nicole Garcia

I bought this for my 3 year old granddaughter for Christmas and just as I was about to wrap it I decided to take it out of the plastic zip bag and put it in a gift box. I'm so glad I did. The blanket and the bag have a very unpleasant odor. It's a very strong musty smell, like it's been in a stinky attic for years. Not sure if anyone else had this when you opened it? Of course it needs to be washed before use but I honestly hate packing it now. I'm really curious to know if anyone else has had this problem. Very pretty but the smell is terrible!
