Neither do most of us, when you get right down to it. I can tell you what I use that I happen to like, but your mileage may vary. There's no harm in just trying a few different brands to see what works for you, in your typical riding conditions.
Right now I'm using Chain-L #5. It's thick. It's a wet lube. It has staying power, which I like. It wipes easily enough from the outside of my chain. Does it make my chain last longer than some other brand of wet lube? I have no idea, to be honest.
