POV Choice

I have several stories I want to write around my sona/oc, Marius. I've struggled to start, since I would love to commit to a style and form that fits well. The stories would follow Marius' love affairs closely from his perspective.
So I have a question: which do you prefer to read in romance/erotica:
First Person
or
Third Person
There are pros and cons to each, of course, but I'd love to hear people's input.
Here's a poll I'm running on twitter as well: https://x.com/MariusTheLion/status/.....01623255216178
Maybe later I'll also see what tense people prefer as well, past or present, because I am nothing if not indecisive.

OP
I think that's the right call! Thanks for the input. The interesting challenge is utilizing his shifting mane element. He wouldn't be able to see it much from a first person perspective. Though, in thinking about it, I realized that's kind of the point 👀💡

I think a 3rd person pov works well here
