Looking to make the jump to niche with a patchouli fragrance

For various reasons that are neither here nor there for this thread I've avoided buying Niche until now, but lately I've had to reluctantly admit to being interested in some niche Patchouli offerings. The three I'm eyeing are:

- Von Eusersdorff Classic Patchouli
- Nobile 1942 Patchouli Nobile
- Montale Patchouli Leaves

For right now my reference patch scent is vintage Giorgio Beverly Hills for Men. What I'm wondering about the ones I listed is which of the three is most masculine leaning (all three are unisex), and which plays most to patchouli's green / herbal side (something I enjoy greatly about Giorgio). Dirty or earthy I don't mind but there has to be some refinement or hints of other notes that distinguish it from a cheap headshop roll-on oil. It doesn't have to be the most true to actual patchouli by any means. If there's any I missed in a similar price range by all means let me know. I'm a little dismayed that all these "pure" patchouli scents pair the patch with amber and vanilla and even maltol in the case of the Nobile - I'd rather see it supported by stuff like moss and vetiver, or frankincense and myrhh, but I suppose that might take it out of unisex territory.
