Al-Jazeera Perfumes Wisteria

The Bottle

Al-Jazeera Perfumes Wisteria has a conventional rectangular bottle, softened by rounded shoulders, rounded edges and a broad flat base. The clear-looking contents and large white cap keep it restrained, while vivid blue flowers and green stems spread across the front and edges. That floral decoration gives an otherwise familiar silhouette a lively, slightly old-fashioned charm.

Original or Clone

Wisteria’s bottle gives the original a modest advantage: its blue floral decoration is more memorable than the rectangular format alone suggests. The fragrance has also attracted one attempt to reproduce its oud, fresh-spicy, rose-led character. That limited sign of reference status is not a reason to dismiss the interpretation; it does show that this particular release has attracted attention. On the evidence available, the original is the more considered choice.
