smooth lines
Charming verbal moves
Smooth lines are words intended to charm, seduce, or persuade—typically romantic flattery delivered with practiced ease: He tried his smooth lines on her at the bar.
The phrase suggests polished delivery but also insincerity, as if the speaker has used the same words many times before.
In visual arts and design, smooth lines are curves or strokes without jaggedness or abrupt angles.
