Hey there, dbot, welcome to the forum! From your description, though, long time user of A314!
I’m an avid user of A314 and can always expect to have the respect and authority shown to me when I use it. I like to combine it with some socials to get the most out of social settings.
As to a gift for your wife, you also have to consider her preferences for scents.
There is Akuto (very masculine), Neroli, (citrusy and my wife says masculine inclined), Cookie (very sweet and delicious as it sounds!, IMO) and several others. I have already given my wife a gift of IS and IH…having a custom order of Neroli and Grapefruit mixed in the bottle…
Here is my thread on the scents and process I took to get my gift set up for my wife. I’d also suggest you call into the Store and talk to Steve O, he was extremely helpful with suggestions.
