What Causes Perfume Taste In The Mouth?

hello, I think this is my 2nd week of periodically tasting perfume in my mouth. I don't wear perfume that often, but, have noticed that when I do, lately, i am tasting it. Or a fragranced hand lotion. It's not a particular fragrance. Is this something that I should be concerned about? No, I am not pregnant.

Hi..
Thanks for writing u to us..

Perfume like taste in mouth can be due to a number of causes but a few more details are needed for ruling out the cause like:
1. Do you have any infected teeth or infection in gums?
2.Do you have acid reflux like problem like heartburn?
3.Do you experience a nasal discharge or post nasal drip, congestion in nose etc?
4.Do you take any medications?
5. Are you having any medical problems?
6.Is there a dry mouth present?
7. Any recent history of head injury?

I would like you to provide following details then only a diagnosis can be made and you can be guided towards a proper treatment.

Please revert back with the details..
