I have a metallic taste in my mouth that I can't get rid of. Whenever I come in contact with someone with strong perfume, I can't explain it but I actually taste it in my mouth. No I didn't lick the person or the perfume cap so I can't understand why this happens. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Some people do have hyperactive taste buds, they are called "supertasters." The idea of a person's chemical laden perfume creating a taste in your mouth is not far fetched. Your tongue is probably soaking up the airborne chemicals. Food does this...ever eat or smell a banana that's been in a bag with fabric softener?

I read in a magazine that some people have more taste buds then others. It sounds like you might be one of the people with more. If you have that metallic taste all of the time you should ask your doctor or dentist about it. Maybe one of them can help you get rid of it.
