Is it normal that everything tastes like perfume?

When I woke up this morning and had my cup of coffee, I noticed it tasted a little like perfume, but thought nothing of it. Later I opened a can of coke and the first sip tasted like perfume as well. So I took a few more sips to see if I had really tasted perfume, and I had. Is there some explanation for why everything has tasted like perfume today?

    Some illnesses can cause chemical imbalances which make you smell/taste things differently. If it doesn't go away within a week, it's worth reporting to a doctor.

    Failing that, if you've ever had perfume in your mouth, the taste is absolutely foul and takes forever to go away. That could be an answer too.

    Have you been wearing scented lip glaze, lipstick, etc...? Use lotion before bed? Strong-scented face wash?

    Wash your hands and try using mouthwash.
