According to Apple:

To unlock a note, you need to enter the password that it's locked with. If you forgot your notes password, Apple can't help you regain access to your locked notes.


Also worth mentioning:

Beginning in iOS 16, you have two options to lock your notes. You can lock notes with your iPhone passcode or you can create a unique password only for Notes.

No one here, including Apple, will be able to retrieve the old notes password for you. You get unlimited amount of tries to get the right password. If you are still unable to recall/retrieve the correct password, then I recommend that you perform a Google search on the internet and look for third party apps that claim to address this issue.
