Why did people carry bags of lavender with them to prevent the black death?

Prevailing medical theory of the Middle Ages was that disease was spread by bad air, which they called miasma. The lavender was supposed to provide a scent that would correct bad air. I know this all sounds silly, but remember that this was an important theory of medicine until the time of Louis Pasteur, in the late 19th century.
