Presently I use both cork (only) and cotton (only). On different bikes but on the same bar (Nitto 176 aka Dream bar). Both are fine but different which only adds to the pleasure. I have also used cotton over cork but liked that the least, it became "too much". It is probably very personal, try all and see what you like. After all, experiment is fun and in this case not very costly.

Having always ridden cork bar tape, I'm inclined to go with some sort of padding but wanted to see what works for others. So, if you use cotton tape, do you pad underneath, and if so what do you use?
