Isopropyl alcohol, commonly known as rubbing alcohol, is a solvent that is often used for cleaning or as a disinfectant. It is important to note that this is not the same as ethanol which is the type you can drink. Isopropyl alcohol is poisonous and should never be ingested.

It's similar to the smell of ethanol but it's not so "sweet". It's really hard to describe odor using words. But some cleaning towels and permanent markers have smell of IPA.

It smells like rubbing alcohol. If you've never smelled rubbing alcohol, the smell of vodka is fairly similar.
