SWMBO has just cut some lavender from the garden, I happened to mention that
my mother and grandmother used to put the flowers in small bags and put them
in the drawers, I had been under the impression that it was just to use the
perfume, but she says it was to deter moths.

Yes, it's anti-moth as well as pro-nice-smell!
