Fragrantica Talk: Perfume Notes We Want to Smell in More Fragrances

As Fragrantica contributors and huge fragrance fans, we've smelled many, MANY perfumes -- and hopefully, we'll have the chance to smell many more. But there are certainly some perfume notes we'd love to smell which haven't been used in any fragrances yet (at least, not to the best of our knowledge). From Norwegian stave churches to the smell of the Guinness factory, Nicola and Adam talk fragrance notes they'd love to smell in perfumes. Have you smelled any of these in scents? What fantasy fragrance notes have you always wanted to smell?
