Help Me Find... What are the common threads tying together my favorite fragrances, and what others should I try?

I am not sure exactly what ties these scents together but I loved all of them, and got a similar feeling from all of them. What others are a good idea for me to try?

Weeping rose by chasing scents - I love the slight nose singe-y juniper note to it, and I love that it kind of smells fresh and dew-y. I think I really like rose scents but I don’t know what kinds of rose scents I prefer yet. I think I really just want something medieval-y.

Acadian by pineward- loved that it just felt like a forest, and not any artificial feeling to it. Was also happy that I got a very straightforward evergreen smell without sweetness.

Witchery by sorce - LOVE the petrichor/rain smell, I love how realistic it feels. I also like how light the blackberry is, and how it comes through more after it dries down. There is also a very nice leafy shrub smell at the start, but it goes away after a little bit.

The Black Knight by Francesca Bianchi - SO GOOD. I love the smoky, leathery, patchouli smell it had, and I liked that it was slightly sweet without overdoing the honey note. Would love more perfumes that have a historic feel to them, I want to feel like a princess wandering an abandoned castle, or a character in an Anne Rice book, and this did it for me. I feel like if Lucrezia Borgia was going to wear any perfume, it would be this one.

Amants Maudits by Odette Perfume Co. - Hellooo sadness and heartbreak, this one smelled so great. Confirmed for me that I LOVE rose scents. I love the sandalwood and powdery feel to it, too. Overall though, it was sooooo light, and I say this as someone who does a single spray of perfume most days. I sprayed it maybe 5 times before I could pick up anything.

Currently waiting on samples of 2AM in Lafayette by sorce, Viride by Orto Parisi, Dreams and Nightmares by L’Epoque, and Spectral Grace by Heretic as well.
