I have had the taste of perfume in my mouth since Monday I initially thought is was a girl at work who to me wears a strong perfume but it has continue when I am home as well even chewing gum and brushing my teeth doesnt stop the taste just subdues it for a short period of time
Hi. Thanks for the query. It looks like perfume like smell on mouth or taste in mouth can be due to Ketoacidosis leading to a fruity or perfume like smell or taste. It can also be due to disorders related to Central Nervous System like Tumor leading to Olfactory Hallucinations. I would suggest you to consult a Medicine Specialist and get evaluated, and he can advise you MRI scan as well as blood investigation to rule out the exact cause of the problem and treatment as well as referral to appropriate specialist can be done accordingly. The condition should not be ignored, and you should soon consult a Physician as in case if it due to Ketoacidosis it can be due to very high or low levels of blood sugar and can be fatal as well as if it is related to brain it can cause you more harmful symptoms if left untreated. Hope this helps. Regards.
