Blind buy suggestion

I need to blind buy 1-3 cheapos, to fill my wardrobe.

The wardrobe:
Body kouros
Rive gauche
Envy
B*men
Ultraviolet
Cerruti L'essence
Jovan Musk
Unforgivable
360 Red
Encre Noire
D&G PH
Jil Sander Man
Pal Zileri Sartoriale
YSL M7 Fresh
Ferragamo F Black

I'm looking for not too outdated 'grand dad' scent, which fits on casual outwear, with good longevity and sillage.

Pick 1, 2 or 3 of those:
Jacques Bogart Silver Scent
Azzaro Visit
Iceberg Homme
Iceberg Effusion
Iceberg Twice
Ungaro III
Ungaro Apparition Intense
Zara Vetiver
Zara Sprint
Lanvin Oxygene
Aramis Tuscany
Canali Summer Night
Christian Lacroix Tumulte
Giorgio Beverly Hills Red
Hanae Mori
Jacques Bogart One Man Show
Kenzo PH
Van Cleef and Arpels Tsar
Van Cleef and Arpels PH
Versace The Dreamer
YSL Live Jazz

..or you think it's better to buy one bottle of AdP Colonia/Assoluta or L'air du desert marrocain?

Tuscany without a doubt.

Live Jazz and Canali Summer Night would be my other two choices.

So Tuscany, Canali and Live Jazz.
I read in reviews about Canali's Dior PH feminine powdery iris note and Live Jazz's celery note... Are this notes very prominent?

Interestingly, I also blind bought Silver Scent today from Cheapsmells.com for 8.99 quid because it was on sale (I think they ship to Slovenia, so have a look there)
