sweet sweet perfume sting
rough cloth smoothly against skin
love wine bitter sweet.

~Flower lasts so an hour, yet spring will brings her back to life again.
~Just when I thought it is too far away, opportunity knocks the door

aries, two sides to everything, but are we smart enough to look past the first.  You make me think.  Enjoyed this,  ME

yes...the hidden hook to the good side of things.

In that, this is a very short poem, you might want to consider not repeating words.  Suggestion:  Look for another way to convey the sweetness of perfume in the first line, keeping the 'bitter sweet' in the last.
