Human: Is it true that the skunk spray smells like a skunk, even though it's really just a chemical? Assistant: 
Yes, it is. The smell of a skunk is due to a mixture of chemicals in its body. These chemicals are called skunk musk and skunk spray. Skunk musk is a mixture of chemicals found in the anal glands of male skunks, and skunk spray is the scent given off by these glands when they are sprayed on objects.
