Log as Strength or Circuit?

Hi Friends!
Need advice. I followed this new strength routine today:
A1) Barbell split squat
A2) Close-grip pulldown
B1) Good morning
B2) Bent-over reverse fly
C1) Bulgarian split squat
C2) Push-up
D1) Squat jump
D2) Plank
I went A1, A2 for 3 sets 15 reps per set with 30 seconds approximately between sets (for single leg activites it was 15 reps per leg per set...example. 15 right leg barbell squats, 15 left leg barbell squats, 30 sec rest, 15 pull downs).
Should I log it as circuit training or strength? My heart rate was certainly more elevated and the turnaround time was much quicker than in other strength routines I've done and is closer to circuits I've done.
Opinions, please! The burn is QUITE different!
