New bottle of pills smells strange

I've been buying the same brand of Ibuprofen for about 10 years. Today I bought a new bottle, opened it up and thought it smelled strange. I don't remember it ever smelling like this. I took the pills out to smell them thinking maybe it was the bottle that smelled, but the pills still smell strange. I don't know how to describe the smell. It just makes me wonder if it's ok to take the pills. There's a number on the bottle but I'm unable to call at this time (long story). Does anyone know if Ibuprofen normally smells kind of strange/yucky?
 
I have been taking prescribed ibuprofen for years. It has never smelled strange. They have changed vendors, but it still did not smell. If you are concerned, go back to where you got them and ask the pharmacist.
