What do you call something that is the opposite of ordinary?

Interesting fact:

Have you ever bowdlerized something you’ve written? Bowdlerize is when we remove material that is improper or offensive. Thomas Bowdler was an editor who published an edition of Shakespeare’s plays called ‘The Family Shakespeare’. Bowdler was shocked by some of Shakespeare’s more racy passages and decided to make them more suitable for children. His name then became associated with censoring literature as well as TV and cinema.
