Some manufacturers put a little fragrance in there, which is generally an oil or something that uses a mineral oil base. Wipe some on a piece of clean glass and see if it leaves any residue. I keep some of the 99% isopropyl stuff around for cleaning circuit boards - it would be just fine for that application.
