and wherein the label is in the form a sleeve disposed about the peripheral wall. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The container system according to claim 1, wherein the sleeve is a shrink sleeve. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The container system according to claim 1, wherein the smooth panel is disposed on a front wall of the peripheral wall. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The container system according to claim 1, wherein the container comprises a second smooth panel disposed on a rear wall of the peripheral wall, wherein the rear wall is opposite a front wall. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The container system according to claim 1, wherein the first smooth panel is curved about a single axis. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The container system according to claim 1, wherein the peripheral wall comprises side walls that connect a front wall to a back wall, wherein at least a portion of the irregularities are disposed at least one side walls. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The container system according to claim 1, wherein the first smooth panel has a first smooth panel surface area that is from about 5% to about 50% of the peripheral wall exterior surface area. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The container system according to claim 1, wherein the textured region has a textured region surface area that is from about 5% to about 50% of the peripheral wall exterior surface area. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The container system according to claim 1, wherein the plurality of irregularities comprises a plurality of facets. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The container system according to claim 9, wherein each of the facets has a facet exterior surface oriented away from the longitudinal axis, and wherein each of the facets has a facet exterior surface area that is between about 0.0001% and about 4% of the peripheral wall exterior surface area. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) A consumer product, wherein the consumer product comprises: the container system according to claim 1, and a consumer product composition disposed in the interior volume of the container. ### Claim 12 An array of consumer products, wherein the array comprises a first consumer product and a second consumer product, wherein the first consumer product comprises a first consumer product composition disposed in a first container, wherein the second consumer product comprises a second consumer product composition disposed in a second container, wherein the first container and the second container each comprise: a closed end having a closed end periphery, a peripheral wall extending from the closed end periphery about a longitudinal axis of the container to an open end, wherein the peripheral wall has a peripheral wall exterior surface oriented away from the longitudinal axis, wherein the peripheral wall exterior surface has a peripheral wall exterior surface area, wherein the peripheral wall exterior surface comprises a first smooth panel and a textured region, wherein the first smooth panel does not encircle the longitudinal axis, wherein the textured region comprises a plurality of irregularities, wherein each irregularity is arranged next to one or more adjacent irregularities; wherein the first container comprises a first label in the form of a sleeve disposed about the peripheral wall, and wherein the second container comprises a second label on the smooth panel, wherein the second label is not in the form of a sleeve. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The array according to claim 12, wherein the second label is selected from the group consisting of an in-mold label, a heat-transfer label, an adhesive label, a direct-printed label, or a combination thereof. ### Claim 14 (depends on 12) The array according to claim 12, wherein the first consumer product composition and the second consumer product composition each comprise a first consumer product adjunct material in common. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The array according to claim 14, wherein the first consumer product adjunct material is a quaternary ammonium ester material. ### Claim 16 (depends on 12) The array according to claim 12, wherein the first and the second labels each comprise a common indicia. ### Claim 17 (depends on 12) The array according to claim 12, wherein the first and second consumer product compositions comprise different perfume systems. ### Claim 18 (depends on 12) The array according to claim 12, wherein the first and second consumer product compositions are both liquids. ### Claim 19 (depends on 12) The array according to claim 12, wherein the first and second consumer products are displayed on a common shelving system, preferably in a commercial setting. ### Claim 20 (depends on 12) The array according to claim 12, wherein the first container comprises a first closure, wherein the second container comprises a second closure, and wherein the first and the second closures are characterized by different sizes, different shapes, different colors, or a combination thereof. ### Claim 21 (depends on 12) A method of manufacturing the first and second consumer products according to claim 12, wherein the method comprises the steps of: providing the first consumer product composition to the first container; providing the label in the form of the sleeve to the peripheral wall of the first container; providing the second consumer product composition to the second container; and providing the label that is not in the form of a sleeve to the smooth panel of the second container.
