Some document says OrientDB is document-database, some others talks it's graph-database. What's right?

It's both: internally manages relationships like GraphDB but can work in schema-less mode like DocumentDB. So both.

According to a conversation with Luca Garulli, OrientDB creator, it is both a document and graph database.
