Since last quarter a group of mine focused on the senses usually not represented in technology, it led my mind astray into the past of time. I ended up thinking vividly about the research at the lab I used to work, defining olefactory receptors and how our nose molecules produce smell stuffs. This is quiet a new field and the last Nobel Prize was given out for research in this unique, strangely simple, but never before sought out category of the senses.
So in conclusion of this contemplating, I decided that I would like to synthesize olfactory receptors together to construct crazy smells nobody has smelled before.
((like bertie bot's every flavor beans. only you wouldn't ever guess the flavour.))
Don't know how possible this would be now, maybe in the future.
...and the smells would be unbearably pleasant.

whoa!! you can probaly already know that I think that's an amazing idea. But why do all the smells have to be unbearably pleasant? What about just fascinating, curious, or unbearably bad? How about meaty smells, or smells that have a long, juicy finish? Great idea!
...or pleasantly unbearable!
This is a great idea!!!
And how would aftersmells work? Could you give smells some inappropriate after-smells? That might be interesting. If you had an unbearably bad smell with an unbearably pleasant aftersmell, or vice versa.
