Propane.. I'm told the odor is "Essence of skunk" but I've smelled it. and I'd not describe it that way. Alas I know it when I sniff it. but... I can't describe it.
Propane is a colourless, odourless gas - what you smell is the mercaptan added to propane which contains sulphur and is the smell you detect as "propane".
