I tested Privilège MkI and MkII, Signature, Récital, 10S, 9*, and a bit of Centered Tone and St Louis. I did'nt really tested Buffet, except some R13 from friends while jaming.
The "L" series I have is easy to blow, flexible and flowing with a round sound, perfect keywork for me (but I do like Selmer keys style). Comfort while playing and is almost the same as the Centered Tone, very close the 10S too, close to the Privilège MkII.
The "L" sound is not as rich as the recent Selmer intruments, not as rich and warm as the Privilège MkII wich is really a wonderful clarinet, not as punchy that the Récital if i remember well the Récital I tested.
It's a lightweight clarinet (Récital and St Louis are not...), mellow, same sound personality between all the registers, it's not difficult to play high notes.
Intonation : you can pitch your "B clarion" A 440 with a long barrel, but most of the notes are more or less in tune, but nothing really impossible to correct.
Privilège, St Louis, Récital, 10S, are way better than "L". I would recommand a 10S series for a good-non-expensive-second-hand clarinet, and the Privilège for a modern professionel one. But I like old cylindric Selmer for some reason.
