I agree with your sentiment.  Except that I grow french lavender (the
one with the bumpy and kind-of fuzzy leaves).  All I have to do is
lightly rub my fingers over the leaves and I have instant lavender
perfume on my hand!  It is such a relaxing scent that I feel wonderful
after I smell it.   And the flowers are pretty, too.
