'blandishments' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'little time in hunt' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'little' could be 'wee' (similar in meaning) and 'wee' is present in the answer.
'time' could be 't' (abbreviation) and 't' is located in the answer.
'hunt' could be 'stalk' (stalk is a kind of hunt) and 'stalk' is located in the remaining letters.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'for' is the link.

(Another definition for sweet talk that I've seen is " flatter".)
