My A4 was a smoker's car when I bought it. I actually did nothing, and after 3 months I just couldn't smell it anymore. Then again, those were summer months with plenty of heat and windows-down.
The best thing you've got going for you is that it's leather... cloth seats just add more surface area for smoke to seep into. Leather doesn't seem to absorb smells. So with a rug shampooing, you should be most of the way there.
Might want to give the leather a good cleaning/conditioning, too. If nothing else, it'll be cleaner & softer, and smell like leather conditioner instead!

the first car they had to try to get the smoke smell out of.
I'm getting a complete interior detail which will include a good cleaning of every
surface inside the car, including carpet, leather, dash, hopefully the headliner.

See, this is why I don't like Black Friday.
This simply shouldn't happen in a civilized nation.
Wal-Mart Employee trampled to death.

I am glad they closed the store 
that just shows the people they f'd up and now no one gets a deal ...
They are going to have to start dressing the greeters in riot gear ...
" Welcome to Walmart .... Now Step the F*** back , one at a time . Oh and have a pleasant day

That is totally ridiculous that sh!t like that has to happen...but believable.
Because people these days don't give a f**k who they hurt as long as they
get what they want when they want it.
I hope they sue the pants off of the idiot, although what will they get? Rights
to the double wide and a lifetime supply of Schlitz??
