With the Free Select Tool  and the Scissor Select Tool  like said @Ofnuts, the OP do need to hit [Enter] to commit its selection, OP can hold [Shift] as much as he want it won't work to add/subtract/intersect with another selection ➤ until he commits its previous selection.

@PixLab
My point about holding the Shift key was made because the OP had said that it worked for the rectangle and circular selection tools if they set the selection mode to "add" - and if it works with the mode selected then it should also work with Shift pressed.

Indeed, [Shift] works without committing on ellipse and rectangle.
