9.5/10. It can't be improved upon in any meaningful way, it's just that great of a collection.

If it were me, I would add Silver Mountain Water, but that's just my taste.

Wow, surprised it got that mark out of 10, I have only been collecting for a year, I might try SMW since I like the notes and can get it cheap.

I would love to see one, standout scent that isn't all too common. That, to me, is the meaning of "signature scent". Maybe that sounds a little egotistical and immature, but that's what I think. Mine are Lumiere Noire and vintage New York.

As for your wardrobe, wow! Great stuff there, let alone the amount of time you've been collecting. How about expanding your oriental collection? L'air du Desert Marocain is great, but you can look more into those I guess.

You appear to have a similar taste in fragrances as I do.

I will recommend:

Prada Luna Rossa
Blue de Chanel
Chanel Allure Homme Sport [or] Eau Extreme
Burberry Touch - beautiful fragrance which goes under the radar.
Armani Diamonds.

Great wardrobe. I would suggest sampling Chanel Sycomore & Coromandel, Serge Lutens Chergui and Diptyque Tam Dao.
