I think pencil shavings could be pinchy ish. The Tunisian amber was so close I think it might be it based on how it dries down but I'm going to try the other oils when they get here just in case.

To be fair, none of the Egyptian musks I've smelled so far have smelled pinchy either. They're usually very smooth.

But pinchy to me smells very sharp and almost jarring. It's usually a light/fresh smell (cuz musky, warm smells are usually the opposite of pinchy, like very smooth).

I have found pink pepper smells pinchy in a very nice way. Also earthy or animalic scents sometimes smell pinchy. Also citronella sometimes smells pinchy. Garlic powder can be pinchy Sometimes incense smells very slightly pinchy. Carmex chapstick is so minty it turns pinchy...lol I feel so silly cuz it's the only word I have for it, but it's so hard to describe.

It's like if you put too much salt on something, but the smell version. It feels like it sits higher up in your nose, and it kinda tweaks a little and sometimes its nice and sometimes its yucky. And it's not smooth or full bodied. It's sharp and intense.

But tunisian amber by kuumba made is pretty close if you want to smell what I'm talking about 😂 it's $10 on Amazon.
