Tzora by Anat Fritz (citric woody chypre)
Patou pour Homme Prive by Jean Patou (reference lavender fougere)

Like these threads as they give me lots of new ideas of things to sample
Wow - narrowing it down to 10... not easy. But if I had to cut my collection down, right now I would say:
Creed Aventus
Creed Spice & Wood
Creed Royal English Leather
Bond No. 9 Bleecker Street
Bond No. 9 New Haarlem
Amouage Jubilation XXV
by Kilian Straight to Heaven
by Kilian Incense Oud
CdG Avignon
Dior Homme Sport (2008)
Current Winter Favorites:
1. House of Matriarch - Blackbird
2. Brückner - Aoud 1
3. Creed - Royal Oud
4. Stéphane Humbert Lucas 777 - Generation Man
5. Armani Privé - Oud Royal
6. by Kilian - Straight to Heaven
7. Stéphane Humbert Lucas 777 - Mortal Skin
8. Ormonde Jayne - Black Gold
9. Creed - Royal English Leather
10. by Kilian - Cruel Intentions
because of the limit to 10, versatility is a factor that comes more into play, and weaknesses like weak longevity are less forgivable).
No chance. I couldn't even cut it down to ten per season!
I could live with just first 4 but if I could pick 10 just for pure variety it would be probably:
Dior Homme Intense - comfort scent
L'Instant de Guerlain Extreme - versatile, sophisticated, masculine
Timbuktu - fresh, sophisticated
Gucci PH II - signature scent
Coromandel - classy scent
Sycomore - green vetiver scent
White Aoud - exotic, comfort scent
Al Oudh - exotic, dirty scent
L Air Du Desert Marocain - masculine, power scent
Dior Homme - formal scent
Creed Windsor - for the rose note if nothing else.
YSL Rive Gauche Pour Homme - the ultimate barbershop fragrance.
Borsari Aqua Classica - a nice Italian colonia, and I enjoy this more than Acqua di Parma.
L'Occitane Eau des Baux - my favorite winter scent.
Lubin Itasca - perfect for fall, I feel myself walking through the woods.
Hermes Terre d'Hermes - great work scent.
Creed Aventus - nothing else quite like this.
L'Occitane Eau des 4 Voleurs - magical, magical stuff. This scent makes me happy.
Tom Ford Tuscan Leather - need a leather here, and hard to choose between this and Knize Ten.
The last one would be a sandalwood. I'm currently waiting for Santal Noble and AOS Sandalwood to make a final decision on which I would take, but for now let's just put down Diptyque Tam Dao.

Most likely, 2 bottles of (almost any) citrus scents, 2 bottles of (preferably non-reformulated or vintage) powerhouse scents, 2 gourmands, 2 scents even more formal than any of the aforementioned categories, 1 "green"/grassy scent and also some very rare, unusual, quirky, creative, overly expensive, luxurious etc. niche, irrespective if the niche scents may already belong to the other existing categories as well or not.
