What Filament do I have?

I bought a spool of Black PLA, but it sure doesn't act like PLA.
It's oily, more flexible, and doesn't want to stick to the build plate (PrintBite) at any temperature combination (bed/extruder)
It doesn't smell when printed and the stated print temperature rage on the label says '190c-210c' which differs from the 'standard' PLA I normally get: 190c-220c
It sorta acts like PETG, but not as flexible when printed - plus I can get PETG to stick to the print bed.
Any ideas how to tell exactly what this is?
Or is it really just crap PLA?
Thanks!

... PLA with additives can behave different - so try to get some info about the receipe ...
