I would recommend Proclus' Elements of Theology, but Dodds' translation is barely readable if you don't know any Greek, since his notes and commentary is full of untranslated Greek terms.

Plotinus' Enneads are the easiest to read primary source (least convoluted). But, Plotinus would put Hegel to shame in how poorly he wrote coherent sentences, so it is likely that Porphyry in having to revise almost everything Plotinus wrote (with his consent) that there were some misinterpretations, but these faults (like superficial contradictions) of the Enneads are obviously rooted in Porphyry and not Plotinus; and Porphyry was (though we should call him blessed) the least inspired Neoplatonic philosopher, any of his misinterpretations were not from malicious intent since we know he had many views different from those expressed in the Enneads.

There is pic related, everything by Dillon and Gerson is great.

The guys Spinoza and Schopenhauer read and were inspired by the most.
I recommend pic related.
