The senses of TASTE ad SMELL are directly related because they both use the same types of RECEPTORS.
If one's sense of SMELL is not functional then the sense of taste will also not function because of the relationship of the receptors.
So someone who always stinks of too much perfume cologne or aftershave will make food that is inedible or tend to. Highly spiced because they can't taste it otherwise.
NOT ALWAYS but often. They overcompensate for what they lack but often don't have a clue.
