Fit is a personal thing, but most elastomeric masks will provide significantly better fit than most n95 masks, and also filter a higher percentage.
The downside is that they do often muffle your voice more and generate significant social friction.
I use a stealthmask dental most often, because it is a white elastomeric that looks like a big n95 mask, so it doesn't scare people the way another mask like a North/Honeywell 7700 would (that's one of my favorite elastomerics otherwise.)
The stealthmask does have a design that prevents a proper user seal check, but it passed my diy fit test easily, so I'm pretty comfortable using them.
I personally wasn't a huge fan of 3m elastomerics when I used them, but they do have better availability in the EU than MSA, Honeywell, or Moldex,
I haven't tried MSA products or reusable Moldex ones, but have heard good things about MSA and Moldex makes amazing disposables, so their elastomaeircs are probably good, too
