I have looked into this and apparently is the special type of wool used - organic, and has had less processing than most wool we are used to.

There is a short post on this at Blog | My Green Mattress. Look for this article several down the page.
WHY DOES MY ORGANIC MATTRESS SMELL?

Thanks for adding the link … I appreciate it

While latex can have a smell that can bother some people … some wool also has a smell that can bother some people as well and there are a couple of other recent examples here and here and here from some of the other members that were commenting about the smell of new wool in their mattress or protector. It does dissipate after it’s had a chance to air out for a few weeks and it’s a fairly common experience with wool that has had less processing.
