I have only seen O, and I would recommend it highly. It has one giant wow factor: water. The floor of the stage transforms invisibly into a pool, then back to a floor, then back to a pool, so you never know when the acrobats are going to dive. It's pretty spectacular.

If you remotely like the Beatles then I would go for Love. O was spectacular because you have a tank of water that doesn't look like a tank of water into which people can dive and a second later run across the surface. Once you get beyond that technical achievement, I think the music, costumes and acrobatics of Love are more exciting. I also saw Ka and would put it at the bottom. My wife saw all of the above +Zumanity +Mystere and ranks Mystere at the top, Ka at the bottom.

I've seen all and would definitely see Mystere again and again. "O" is very "vegasy", lots of lights and less skills. Mystere is what you think of when you think Cirque. The performers do athletic, aerial and gymnastics routines that are simply amazing. You can't believe your eyes. Some of the others are a little cheesy. For the others don't pay extra to sit upfront. Not so with Mystere, while you're not going to miss anything if in the back, closer is better.

I've seen O and Mystere and they are both great.
I would recommend O first because it's so unusual. It's unlike any other shows because of the tank and water.
Mystere is also great, but if you've seen a lot of other Cirque touring shows, it's similar so you know what you're getting. If you've never seen any Cirque show before, it might be a good place to start and would be more impressive.
Both shows are great and you can't go wrong with either imho. I am seeing Love next week, and I hope to enjoy that one just as much.
