This sound to be could be used for a lot of genres such as Synthwave, 80's style music, ambient etc.. Make sure the sound is Monophonic to avoid the amplitude tails clashing with each other. 2 sawtooth osc's slightly detuned apart opposite direction to create a nice phasing effect. Filter with a 24db lowpass filter, low resonance, modulating the cutoff with a mod wheel and recording automation manually for expressiveness, or alternatively with a slow attack envelope. Amp envelope has a slowish attack with high decay and release times to create the nice decaying tail of the sound. Subtle chorus effect. For EQ I cut the lows for a thinner sound like the original but this will depend on the context you use the lead in. Added a little bit of saturation with decapitator Finally one of the most important parts was simply a reverb with a big size/decay to create the big atmosphere important for this kind of track. How much reverb depends again on the context you use this sound. Finally for an even thicker sound in Diva consider stacking more voices.
