Do I smell pencil?

The scent starts off really well. I perceive a fruity freshness.
I probably smell the mandarin and the lychee.
If I didn't know the notes, I wouldn't have been able to identify the fruit directly.

What puzzled me was the background note right after spraying. Behind the freshness, which is quickly joined by floral notes, I smelled something that almost has a sweaty scent.
Not animalic or disgusting, but the association was there.

As the scent develops, this impression fades away, and I now perceive the note I previously associated with sweat as a pencil smell.

However, all of this plays out in the background, as the fresh, floral, and also fruity notes definitely take center stage.

Over time, the pencil note also disappears. Strangely enough, I usually notice pencil notes in fragrances that contain rose and woody notes.

I find the scent rather not powdery, so I don't get anything from the iris. But that could also be because I was too focused on perceiving the other scent components.

In the end, it is floral-fresh with slightly ambered notes for me.
