Wanted by Night
Wanted By Night takes third, but it's very close to The Most Wanted Parfum for me. The cinnamon, fruity notes and tobacco work so well together to create a sweet, spicy scent with plenty of impact. It's a head-turning combination that makes this a very close choice for second place.

The Most Wanted Eau de Parfum Intense

The gourmand toffee twist is the appeal for me. It gives this edition a sweeter direction that I think works especially well for date nights.
Performance
Our Wanted longevity guide supplies the wear-time estimates. Its place here comes from the gourmand toffee character and how well I think it fits date nights.
Versatility
Date nights are the use I have in mind for this one. The gourmand toffee twist is what would make me choose it over a fresher version.
Value
I would consider this for its toffee character and date-night role. It sits below my top three overall, but that gourmand direction gives it a clear reason to try it.

Another fresh and aromatic take on Wanted. The reason it sits lower is that I find it adds less to the line than the other flankers.
Performance

Value
I think this improves on the original EDT, but it adds less to the line than the other versions. I would compare the higher-ranked editions before putting my money toward Wanted EDP.

Wanted Eau de Toilette
Wanted EDT comes in last as the original, Invictus-esque take on Wanted. To me, it offers little value next to the flankers, which I find much better overall. It's worth trying if you're curious about where the line started, but I'd put my money toward one of the other versions.
Editorial wear estimate. Skin, weather and application affect performance.
Choose it if
Try the EDT if you want to experience the original, Invictus-esque Wanted and compare it with the flankers.
Consider another if
If you are buying just one Wanted and share my preferences, I would start with Forever Wanted Elixir or one of the other flankers.

Scent, wear & buying advice
Scent profile
This is the original, Invictus-esque Wanted. My reason for putting it last is that I find the flankers much better overall and see little value in choosing it over them.
Performance
The separate Wanted longevity comparison covers wear time. My reason for placing the original last here is the limited value I see next to the flankers.
Value
To me, the original provides little value compared with the much better flankers. If I were choosing one Wanted, I would put my money toward another edition in this ranking.
The final word
Which one should you buy?
Forever Wanted Elixir would be my first choice for its raspberry and leather blend and its powerhouse character in winter. The Most Wanted Parfum and Wanted By Night are a very close call: choose between slightly boozy Bourbon vanilla and woods, or head-turning cinnamon, fruit and tobacco. The Most Wanted EDP Intense is the gourmand toffee option I'd consider for date nights. For a fresher, more aromatic direction, compare The Most Wanted EDT Intense with Wanted EDP. I think Wanted EDP improves on the original, but the EDT offers little value to me next to the flankers.
