I'm new to vaping, and since I started, I notice a weird smell/taste lingering all the time, even if it's been hours since I vaped. Will this go away? It colours the taste of anything that I eat, and it mildly nauseating... Has anyone else experienced this?

Your sense of smell and taste will return after quiting smoking for a while. Maybe your e-liquid has a strong smell, or maybe your place has smelled that way all along.
Try a different e-liquid for a while and see of it helps.

I did notice this when I first started. For me it was like a coating on my tongue. It was gross. It was because I bought a tobacco flavor that was 100% VG and it coated my mouth. When I switched to a 50/50 PG VG mix it went away....
I had the same problem, V2 from my understanding is 100% PG when I made the switch to a 40/60 50/50 that issue went away.
As everyone has said, try different juices and nic levels. The other thing that I noticed was that I was vaping a WHOLE lot more then I was ever smoking.. at first.
The ability to vape in my office had me going through bottles and bottles of e-liquid at first. Once I slowed down I noticed that any after tastes I was experiencing went away.

I'm finding that vaping, perhaps over-vaping, will mess with one's sense of tast/smell (they're interrelated, you know). When I first started vaping, everything tasted sooo good. Now, not so much. I can, now, barely taste the same flavors that originally knocked my sox off a month ago. I'm not sure that my experience is common, but its all I have to go on. I suppose I should take a break.
Your sense of taste and smell begins to improve drastically after you quit smoking. It could be that you are experiencing more sensitivity to the flavors you are vaping. Do food and drink tastes linger, too?
Or I wonder if maybe you have a sensitivity to PG?

It is tough to do, but can you describe the smell combo taste?
Are you using the same equipment or is it there regardless of what you use?
Is it a constant thing and always presenting as the same smell/taste or do you notice any variation at all?
The nausea thing you mention triggers the "could it be too much nicotine?" question in my head.
I know smells and tastes are difficult to describe but I think the more information you can supply about what you experience - don't worry, you can't give too much - will help you find an answer. The knowledge and experience level with vaping on this forum is incredible and, unlike many forums, the vets pop into help us newbies all the time. I'm thinking if you can detail your experience, someone will know what is going on.
Input, input. Number 5's alive

It's like a chemically-burning smell/taste. More of a smell than a taste. It makes no difference what I use. It is there when I wake up in the morning, and it stays (to varying degrees) all day. Occassionally, I will catch a whiff of some flavor I was vaping, but the weird burning smell is pretty constant.
This literally makes me wanna beat my head against a wall till my neck is just a stump.
