Lavender and Lovely, Red Roses

Like lavender and lovely, red roses, they’re meant for your immaculate sweethearts and their fine, little, delicate noses; not to damage the most sensitive parts, or overwhelm the olfactory senses, bedaub with the finesse of the fine arts, as love’s a game of great consequences. Lovers choose on the mere whiff of a scent; so smell good, or lead to major offenses. Too much perfume is wholly unpleasant: a little hint on the neck and the wrist is enough to smell attractively fragrant; then don’t offend like a face striking your fist, if you heed these lines you'll get the main gist.
